Brooks picks up his second Development Tour Title of the year

Bradley Brooks won the final event of the last batch of UK Development Tour events.  This time he didn’t have to wait so long to pick up the £2000 after defeating Jarred Cole in the second event of the day.

Brooks returns to winning ways

In his first three games Brooks only dropped two legs in defeating Jordan Ward, Bradley Timlin and Mitchell Leeming. In the last 16 it was the tie we was all hoping for, with the current World Youth Champion taking on the winner of Event One. The game didn’t disappoint with both averaging in the 90’s and Brooks edged him out in a last leg decider.

Bradley Brooks went from strength to strength in easing past Jack Dickinson 5-1 in the Quarter-Finals before defeating Liam Meeks 5-2.

In the Final we saw another top tungsten clash with Jarred Cole losing to the winner of the competition again, this time it was in the final to a 97 average from Bradley Brooks
