PBA Results

SECOND SEASON WIN FOR ASHTON

Wellington’s Rob Ashton is looking to pick up where Manawatu’s Phil Skoglund left off from last season by sweeping all before him at the Heretaunga Club in Hastings. Ashton picked up his second tournament win of the season by beating home-town player George Ngametua in the final, and looked in control throughout the weekend coming through a tough part of the draw. Ngametua created a scare in the final by picking up a three on the final end of the second set to force the match into a tie-break, but unfortunately knocked the kitty to an Ashton bowl on the first end of the best of three end decider when trying to nail a closer shot with his last bowl. Ashton was then able to sit out Ngametua’s shot bowl in the second end to take the match.
