Peter Lines is this season’s “Alex Crum” Yorkshire Masters Champion.
Peter Lines defeated Shaun Wilkes 3-1 in yesterday’s “Alex Crum” Yorkshire Masters final.
Lines started the day in fine form, breaks of 81 and 89, giving him a comfortable 3-0 1st round win over Chris Walker. He then had to sit and wait for his next opponent as Gary Addison-Doy came back from 2-0 and 50 points down to defeat Lionel Payne 3-2 in a match which took 10 minutes short of 4 hours! Addison-Doy was then despatched 3-1 followed by a 3-0 victory over Dave Allender.
Previous Masters winner Craig Butler was Lines’ semi-final opponent and it turned out to be his closest match, a 3-2 win put him into the final.
In the lower half of the draw, Shaun Wilkes started with a 3-1 win over Dave French before edging past Chris Hart 3-2, A 3-0 win over Richard Pamment was next before facing last year’s Masters winner Gary Milne in the semi-final.
The day’s highest break of 106 helped Wilkes to a 3-2 win and a place in the final.
Breaks of 73 and 57 put Lines 2-0 up in the final before Wilkes hit back in the third. Ultimately Lines proved too strong and a win in the next frame wrapped up the 3-1 win and with it the Masters title.
The consolation Plate competition was won by Mike Lucas who defeated Mikey Gaughan in the final.
Many thanks to Andy Kitson for officiating and of course to our main sponsors the Northern Snooker Centre.
