We have 2 full weeks left of play followed by the prize giving.

The leaders of the sections: Pat Colemen, Matthew Chapman and David Seaby (who led the tournament for several weeks) are all potential winners.

Pat Coleman is the top section leader at 77.78% and if he fulfills the 10 games needed is impossible to catch.

Matthew Chapman on 80% is closely chased by Cahal Murphy 77.8% who could catch him.

Whilst in the lower section David Seaby 71.88% who for several weeks was leading the whole tournament is chased by Ashley McWhiney on 60%.
