CP Mathewson and Cecil Bornman collected a maximum 12 points from their opening two Hong Kong Classic pairs matches on 9 November, Bowls South Africa reports.

The South Africans beat Hong Kong Football Club 12-7, 7-4 for a 19-11 aggregate win. Their second match against Hong Kong Cricket Club ended 10-6, 8-6, giving them an 18-12 aggregate victory.

The governing body placed South Africa second in its section after the opening day, with England, Hong Kong and Ireland on the following day’s schedule. Those standings are an opening-day snapshot.

Bowls South Africa thanks Stanley Lai, pictured with the pair, for the photograph.
