Jim McEwan and Deta Hedman capture WDF titles at England National Singles

Last weekend the England National Singles singles tournament was played in Selsey, England. Jim McEwan and Deta Hedman managed to take the overall wins, writing a WDF tournament with silver status on their record.

On the men's side, the title went to McEwan, who ceded just three legs with wins over Josh Newton (4-0), Michael Powell (4-0), Cameron Obrien (4-0), Jason Heaver (4-2) and Reece Colley (4-1) to reach the quarterfinals.

Then the Scot had to compete against David Prins (4-3) and Bhav Patel (4-3), who were defeated only after a leg-decider. McEwan then proved too strong for Matt Clark in the final, 5-1.

Hedman took advantage of a devalued field of participants in the women's event, due to many ladies attending the PDC Women's Series tournaments. Hedman handled Kelly Ellis (4-0), Abbi Ettridge (4-0), Jo Rolls (4-0), Sophie McKinlay (4-2) and Eve Watson (5-3).
