James Stout, based in New York, ran away with the Rackets Singles World Championships title on Saturday 8 November at Queen’s with a scoreline of 15-11 and 15-6. In the first game, it took 20 minutes to get past the half way mark, but thereafter his superiority came to the fore, and in the final game of the Single title Harry Foster only got 6 points on the scoreboard. The match was played in front of a packed and excitable gallery, with applause and hollering at almost every point, and the outgoing Champion received a huge ovation at the presentation. The gallery contained many former rackets world champions, including Geoffery Atkins, and we were delighted to have a good sprinkling of North American visitors for the weekend
For the record, the First Leg was won by James Stout 4 games to 1, and the Second Leg was also won by James Stout 2 games to 0, both being best of 7 in each venue. In the Second Leg, Stout only neeed to go 2 games ahead to clinch it
Even start between Bermuda and NY
