A WEEK after they lost to Middlesex in the Johns Trophy, Kent took revenge in the third round of the Walker Cup (Double Rink).

After only five ends the score was level but at 10 ends Kent were leading 17-11. Over the next 11 ends Kent’s determination saw them through to the semi-finals as they extended their lead to 39-27 shots.

Kent never having won the Walker Cup, are looking forward to bringing this title to Kent for the first time in the year of their 75th Anniversary.
