Ireland Players Championship Round Three
Mick Egan, Thomas Concannon and Mark Finneran made the long trek to Tramore on Saturday for round three of the Ireland Players Championship. Egan was the sole Roscommon representative in a field of 129 entries for the mens singles, and won through to the last 8, before losing out to John Elder of Antrim. With board favourite Daryl Gurney still at the Lakeside, Egan took advantage to win his board out, and gain 6 ranking points in the race for the grand finals. Elder, who had missed double 12 for a nine dart finish in his last 16 match, won out the event, beating Benny Grace of Kilkenny. Concannon and Finneran took their places in a field of 40 in the youths competition. Concannon went out early, losing out to Jason Hahessy of Tipperary, but Finneran got all the way to the final, before losing out to Martin Henegan of Mayo. Finneran gained 10 points in the youths rankings for his efforts.
