SUTTON WINS ENGLISH AMATEUR

Matthew Sutton, runner up last year, went one better this year, lifting the English Amateur Billiards title in Darley Dale.

Sutton held off the challenge of Cambridge's Phil Mumford to take the title 971-637.

Breaks of 176 and 123 helped Sutton along the way, while Mumford notched up 119, 87 and 70, but Sutton's average of 24.9 was superior to Mumford's 16.3.
