| KEITH MANLOVE... in winning form for MATLOCK CLUB |
Graeme Wood had got his team off to a convincing start courtesy of a 63-18 scoreline before James Travis equalised but then Manlove got his outfit rolling again with a fine performance to edge his side ahead and despite Josh Lee's equalising fourth frame, it ultimately proved to be in vain.
Manlove also continued in winning form in the Open Individiual Handicap competition, moving into the semi final with a 3-2 win over Crich's Ady Lowe.
At the top of the table, Bolehill No 1 drew alongside Matlock Golf Club holding on to a 3-2 win after taking the first three frames. Colin Marchington notched a century haul of points and Andrew Brough was in excellent touch but Charlie Hodgkinson's black ball decider in frame four kick-started a defiant resistance from the home team.
Belper Strutt Club continue to gain ground and are now five points behind with a game in hand after a 4-1 win at Crich Comrades.
Mark Newby made the game safe in frame four after Ady Lowe had kept his team in the hunt following early reverses.
