Australia fell a long way short of a gold medal – and one of the biggest comebacks in grass bowls history – 14-12 in England.
England, after seven finals without scoring, remained unbeaten in the trebles here at the Commonwealth Games.
He eventually came to the final bowl of Australian Ben Twist, the biggest bowl of his career. And he put it wide on the right.
Aussies will feel they could have had this, but it didn’t.
Congratulations to England’s Louis Ridout, Nick Brett and Jamie Chestney, and commissions to Australia’s Barrie Lester, Carl Healey and Ben Twist.
