THE GLOUCESTERSHIRE Women’s County Pairs Final saw agony for Olveston’s Sue Latham and Lynne Drysdale.
It was, though, a stunning game that went down to the very last end with May Shurmer and Margaret McColl (Cheltenham Spa) defeating last season’s champions Drysdale and Latham 22-21.
The match saw the Cheltenham pair stride into a 13-4 lead when they picked up a four and then hit the high notes with two twos and a three.
The 11th end saw a remarkable turnaround as the Olveston pair scored a seven followed by a four to lead 15-14.
Piling on the shots the champions went ahead 18-17 before they dropped a five to be 22-18 down.
On the 20th end, Cheltenham led by two shots and went on to seal their dramatic win.
