Husband and wife duo Wayne and Josie Turner won Kyneton Golf Bowling Club’s singles championships.
Two well contested finals were played last Wednesday, and Wayne took his tally to nine singles titles — six at Kyneton Golf, two at Woodend, and one at Kyneton.
The pinnacle was his Victorian singles crown in 2001.
“I gave up playing golf and went to bowls about 30 years ago, and it’s good to be still enjoying it,” he said after defeating relative bowls newcomer, Dennis Sheppard, who did a great job to reach the final.
In the early stages Sheppard played really well to establish a handy lead, but switching to short ends enabled Turner to take control, and he eventually won 25-13.
Josie Turner made her tally at Golf three championships, opening up an early lead before Pauline Wilson found her range and produced some excellent bowls.
The final score was 25-19.
