Naomi Owen - wins Bristol GP

The Women’s Open went exactly to seeding with Naomi Owen S1 and Egle Adomelyte S2 contesting the final. Naomi had a fairly comfortable ride to the last match terminating all her challengers that included Claire Nelson, Emma Vickers and Amanda Mogey to reach the expected final. Whilst in the bottom half of the draw Adomelyte had to be at her very best to get past a determined Sarra Wang coming through 12-10 in the fifth end. Her semi final opponent Natalie Slater (who had good wins against Melissa Wright and Chloe Thomas) had no answers to the hard hitting style of Adomelyte at the last four stage.

So as expected the Women’s final had some spectacular hard hitting rallies from both these accomplished young Women however it was the more consistent Naomi Owen who came through 3-1 to pick up a well earned cheque for £175.
