Harlow victorious in bowls final
Bowls
Greg Harlow has won the Co-operative Funeralcare World Match Play Championship in Sheffield.

Harlow, 38, beat fellow Englishman Mervyn King 10-8 4-10 2-0 to secure his fourth successive world title.

"It's unbelievable, I don't know what it is - I wish we could play all WBT events here," said Harlow afterwards.

"Mervyn played a fantastic game, but all the way through I felt I could win. I really feel at home in Sheffield. Perhaps I should buy a house here."

Harlow negotiated his way to the final after defeating Wales' Robert Weale, while King sent Scotland's Alex Marshall out of the tournament in the last four.

Speaking afterwards, 41-year-old King said: "It's unbelievable to get to another final.

"I made a slow start in the first set, then managed to sneak the second. But Greg played really well and deserved to win."
