Leonard Gates/Fallon Sherrock/Cameron Menzies proved the strongest at a mixed triples tournament in Las Vegas last weekend. In the final, they won over another well-known trio.
In a mixed triples tournament, teams consist of three people. They then take turns throwing, just as in a pairs tournament. However, teams do start the legs at 601 instead of 501.
In the first six matches, the trio of Sherrock, Menzies and Gates conceded only one leg. They then faced Simon Whitlock, Jules van Dongen and Katie Falla in the final. The latter is Whitlock's wife. However, the final was won 3-0 by Menzies, Sherrock and Gates.
