Wingate Willie

Willie with memories of
past achievements
The final round saw Team Kerr and Team Nicoll both in with a chance.
Things were looking good for Willie as he faced last years champion Andy McDiarmid, who in a reversal of fortune was propping up this years rankings.  Andy faced him with a surprise up his sleeve, with Graeme benched, Dave Munro was hastily substituted.  Andy got off to a great start with a five in the first end and try as he might Willie was never able to catch up.  The final score 9 - 6 and only Andy's second win of the season.
This defeat left Morgan with the chance of the title, A win and at least 4 ends were required.  Fate was about to take a hand though, through another late substitution.  Morgan did not play and left his son and heir to take the glory, but he was to be aided (?) by Scottish Junior Champion (and daughter of Willie !!) Rowena.  But it was not to be with Sandy waiting until the seventh end to get out the blocks against James Pate's squad.  Final score, Lots - 1.
With both championship leaders failing to win, the championship went to Willie Kerr, whose name will appear on the Rosebowl for the first time.
