Play got under way this morning with some great games of Curling and no major upsets.
Bryce v MacLeod saw Macleod take 5 of the 8 ends and win 7-6.
Bryce
took a 3 in the first end and MacLeod could only take a 1 in the
second. Bryce countered with a 2 in the 3rd
but MacLeod had a string of success and won the next three ends going
into the 7th
end with a 6-5 lead. The 7th end saw Bryce lying two in the house –
one of which was in the 4 foot and playing long guards which were
initially removed until a well-played 5th
MacLeod stone went round the guard and hit and rolled the centre
stone – a nice tap back by the Bryce 5th
stone saw their yellow in the 4 foot but open. Bryce took the 1 in
the 7th
to level the game but in the 8th
Macleod took a 1 to win the game.
Pougher v Whyte as Pougher take 4 of the 7 ends however a 3 and a 4 by Whyte saw them take the game 8-5.
Pougher
took only a 1 in the first against Whyte as a result of his last
stone appearing to pick up however he also took a further 1 in the
2nd
and a 1 in the 4th. Whyte took a 1 in the 3rd
and then a 3 in the 4th
– however Pougher had a 2 in the 6th
and saw the lead changing again to 5-4 for Pougher with two ends to
go. With Whyte having the hammer he was looking for a two.
Pougher placed his shot amongst the Whyte shots leaving Ross with a
tricky last shot to remove it and leave his own. He had a nice hit
and gained 4 shots to go 3 up.
Hamilton v Lill saw two blank ends and this was followed by a well fought game and Lille won by getting a single in the last end.
Hamilton
v Lill was extremely tight with blank ends in the 1st
and 3rd
and only Hamilton managed to score with a single in the second end.
After that Lill took the 4th
with a 2 and a 1 in the 5th.
Hamilton took a one in the 7th
and the game was tied with last end deciding. Lill with the hammer
took a 1 to win the game.
