The Australian city of Geelong was the battleground of the Australian Masters last weekend, where men and women competed for a WDF silver category title.
Danny Porter won the men's tournament. The Australian led 6-1 against Harley Kamp in the final, but could only struggle to win the overall victory 7-6. Former PDC Tour Card holder Gordon Mathers was surprisingly eliminated by Kemp in the quarter-finals.
In the women's event, Corinne Hammond managed to win another WDF title on Australian soil for the first time since 2018. She easily defeated Chrisitne Sheerin (6-0) in the final for her fifth title at the Australian Masters. Hammond did not concede a leg in the entire singles tournament, in which she played eight matches.

- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
