Lowe and Nedd endured to eventually win 11-3, 5-11, 14-12, 7-11 and 11-6 before Lowe, Bryan and Joel Alleyne tied for the 21 Years and Under Open title after they finished the round robin playoff with similar aggregates.
Four players entered the playoff including Hopkinson who went down to Bryan 11-8, 11-9, 8-11, 8-11 and 11-8. Alleyne put Hopkinson out of contention when he defeated him in a 10-12, 11-8, 5-11, 11-9 and 12-10 nail biter.
Hopkinson had also lost to Bryan 13-11, 8-11, 11-8 and 11-8. Alleyne went on to defeat Bryan 12-10, 12-10, 9-11, 4-11 and 11-6 before Lowe inflicted a sound 5-11, 11-8, 11-7 and 11-7 thrashing on Alleyne yesterday.
However, Bryan redeemed himself in one of the marquee showdowns of the day against national counterpart, Lowe. He rallied to eventually win 13-11, 7-11, 11-7, 5-11 and 11-9 to bring him on par with Lowe and Alleyne on points.
