Young Guns Whittaker & Brownlee shoot past the opposition to win club doubles

58 players took part in the Handicap Doubles tournament.

Newcomer Cathy Gordon partnering the Most Improved Lady of the Year, Diane Binnie, made it all the way to the semi finals. At one stage it looked very much as if fathers Ian Whittaker and Fergus Brownlee were going to play against their sons Christian and Daniel in the final. However, the steady pair of Alan Wagner and Andy Woodward put paid to that by playing some terrific tennis in the semi final. So, the final was set between the youngest ever pair to compete in this tournament and it was the young guns, playing with a maturity beyond their years to take the trophy.

Semi Finals:

  • A Wagner & A Woodward beat F Brownlee & I Whittaker 6-3
  • C Whittaker & D Brownlee beat C Gordon & D Binnie 6-2

Final:

  • Whittaker & Brownlee beat Wagner & Woodward 6-3
