Brian Williams and Mark Kerr win 2025 European Open

Congratulations to Annbank Bowling Club’s Brian Williams and Tarbolton Bowling Club’s Mark Kerr on winning the 2025 Bowls Scotland European Open.

The Ayrshire pairing defeated Kevin Spence & Colin Smith, Alistair Hogarth & Callum Hogarth, Robert Malcolmson & Thomas Malcolmson and Ian Bell & William McLaughlin earlier in today’s knockout stages.

In the final Brian and Mark were leading 6-0 against Scottish para internationalists Mary Wilson and Pauline Wilson. Unfortunately, Mary and Pauline had to concede the match due to a medical injury.

Thanks to Bowls Scotland’s President Keith Fender and CEO Malcolm Dingwall-Smith for carrying out the medal presentation. Our thanks also go to all of the hard-working umpires who help make events like this possible.
