Honiton's Sue Evans was unbeatable at singles in the Devon Championships, beating Kings' Natalie Melmore 21-15 in the four-wood final. Evans also won an all-Honiton county two-wood final with Carole Binmore 16-11. It took a while for Evans to break away from Melmore, but at 13-13 she never looked back. Against Binmore, she went 12-11 up and finished strongly with successive doubles at the close. In the over-55 singles, Crediton player Joan Martin was beaten by Sarah Quayle 21-16. But Martin bounced back to partner clubmates Jill Heal and Muriel Scott to victory in the triples, beating Iris Gill, Margaret Arscott and Nikki Wilkins of North Tawton 21-13. Sidmouth's Jane Painter had no problems in the unbadged singles, beating Tiverton's Angie Hill 21-13. But there was disappointment for clubmates Jean Brimson and Eileen Hewett in the over-70 pairs final against Jenny Bishop and June Wallis, losing 24-19. In the ladies' two-wood triples, Christine Macaulay, Sue Harriott and Liz Smerdon of Madeira beat Topsham's Ruth Voysey, Jean Chudley and Margaret Ewings 22-14. In the Benevolent Triples, Seaton's Maria Johnson, Di Morley and Pat Whitworth beat South Molton skip Pam Parkhouse 17-11. In the over 55 pairs, Gill Callaghan and Christina Woollacott overcame Jan Hutchins and Sue Devonport 24-12. Jill Heal, Mary Abbot, Muriel Scott and Joan Martin of Crediton defeated Topsham's Yvonne Hayman, Freda Relph, Jean Chudley and Jennie Dawson.
