13 February 2013

DARRAGH Cross table tennis star Paul McCreery delivered yet another top class performance by claiming two titles at the recent Cardiff Grand Prix.

In the men’s open singles, McCreery stormed to the final by beating Bristol Academy’s Korean player, Jekwon Choi, before another good win over Welsh junior Conor Edwards in the quarter-finals.

In the semi-finals, McCreery had a very tough opponent in English No. 9 Matthew Ware but claimed a fine 3-1 victory.

In the final, McCreery faced Yongbo Zhang of Ormseby TTC. He had obviously observed his opponent closely and stormed to a 3-0 victory to claim the title.

In the U-21 event, McCreery again eliminated Welsh junior international Edwards at the semi-final stage, before beating Welsh senior international Dan O’Connell 3-0 in the final to finish off a perfect weekend.
