Ben Robb and Nicole Regnaud take titles at WDF North Island Masters

Ben Robb and Nicole Regnaud won the titles on offer at the WDF North Island Masters in New Zealand last weekend. This tournament had bronze status on the WDF calendar.

Robb, who captured the gold medal at last year's WDF World Cup, lost in the final of the South Island Masters just last month. In Hastings, however, the New Zealander emerged victorious. After making it through the group stage, Robb dealt with Martin Black, Anthony Benitez and Harley Smith to reach the final. In it, he was 5-2 too strong for Jonny Tata.

In the women's tournament, Nicole Regnaud won her second WDF title of the year. After beating Jadine Black in the last 16, Regnaud recorded comfortable victories over Amelia Watt and Desi Mercer and forced a final against Wendy Harper. The latter was the defending champion, but saw the title go 5-2 to Regnaud after the 24-year-old New Zealander managed to throw a handsome 141 finish for the win.
