The first top 5 La Rochelle Qualifiers selected for the final

In the first playoff, 5 players outshone the rest to enter the finals of the La Rochelle selection event. They are James Quek, Albert Chia, Andy Tan, Jamal and Lawrence Lee.



In the playoffs, the 10 qualifiers played in a round robin fashion. Each game were scored according to the points or marks received and legs won, rather than on the win itself. And in response to players requests, the event is played in the air-conditioned comfort of the wine-bar. All La-Rochelle qualifying events will be played in this setting.

Right from the first leg of the sequence of games played, James Quek was leading the pack with a comfortable lead. Midway through, the top 4 scorers were already clear and the battle was in the fight for the 5th position. Lawrence Lee had a small lead and managed to hold on to the lead until the end.

These top 5 players will be playing in the finals on 2nd May, together with 5 other top players that will be selected from the second playoffs, which are now playing. Sign-up for the qualifying events if you have not done so!
