Deirdre Giles beats her seeding at Toombul; Trans-Tasman Test Series coming to Wynnum

Deirdre Giles finishes above seeding at CAQ GC Women's Open Singles

Deirdre Giles represented the Wynnum Croquet Club in the CAQ GC Women's Open Singles held at Toombul on 7-8 April 2018.

All 12 players competed in a round robin format, playing 6 untimed 13-point games on Saturday. The remaining 5 games of the round robin were played on Sunday.

Deirdre ended up with a higher place than she was seeded at the start of the tournament. Well done.

Our own Liz Fleming presented the trophy for CAQ's GC Women's Singles to Helen Rillie of Headland/Buderim.
