Thomas Carey this is too early on a saturday to be awake and not running around a field. ggwp thanks for hosting

Maria Chandler

Maria Chandler It's been fun while it lasted. Thank you for organising Matthew and good luck to everyone in the rest of it.

Matty Artell

Matty Artell Was most likely out anyway after the first half shambles but didn't really fancy continuing, gl to all

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier 3 cracking max games this round, with Elliott racking up his 4th Aegilops WL max game and Florence coming within a whisker of her 3rd SL of this year's tournament being just pipped for that accolade by Strongest Link Dave.

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier For the second round in a row a former champion was in the drop zone until very late on, with Thomas prematurely saying his goodbyes before Alex saved him in the penultimate game, and then he himself was saved thanks to Matty's struggles. This leaves Sean just short and Maria unable to match her stronger practice games. So, Sean, Maria and Matty you are the Weakest Links. Goodbye!

Key. Green: winner. Red: loser. Bold: max game. A struck-out individual score is an excluded performance.
