Myra Hawkins beat Denise Wills to win her 3rd All England Ladies title. Myra, trailing Denise by 800 at half time, managed to clinch the title 9,510 to 7,930 on aggregate. I believe the win puts Myra in a group of 4 players that have won 3 or more titles - Viv Wright (10 titles), Jan Taylor (6) and Christine Toner (4). Myra's other wins were in 1991 and 2000
Results of the Groups
Group 1 P W L Score Ave Pts Legs Won 1 Myra Hawkins Berks 3 3 0 22,260 3,710 6 6 2 Pauline Withey Oxon 3 2 1 28,320 4,720 4 4 3 Joyce Mannell Hants 3 1 2 15,030 2,505 2 2 4 Sarah Duncanson Cambs 3 0 3 6,470 1,078 0 0
Myra's win against Pauline was crucial here. Myra won both legs to win 9,730 to 4,710. Pauline was consoled with the highest break of 5,430.
Group 2 P W L Score Ave Pts Legs Won 1 Denise Wills Surrey 3 3 0 24,330 4,055 6 4 2 Gina Sherratt Sussex 3 2 1 21,400 3,567 4 3 3 Penny Burch Northants 3 1 2 21,250 3,542 2 4 4 Jackie Peckham Kent 3 0 3 9,860 1,643 0 0
Denise went through unbeaten. Penny Burch ran her close in the final match, where if she won would have seen herself, Denise and Gina Sherratt on 2 wins each with very close aggregate scores. However Denise held on to beat Penny by 1,400.
Very well done to Myra

Congratulations also to Den (my former teammate at the Scud) on making the final.
