Tony O’Sullivan leads from the front to clinch Carbery crown

Tony O’Sullivan led all the way against Declan O’Donovan in the Carbery Junior A final at the Marsh Road.

He won the first tip with a good bowl to Glencurragh cross. He looked set take a significant lead with his third, but his bowl hopped the footpath and hit a bollard just 50m fore. He made up for this with a super fourth to O’Mahony’s boreen to take his lead to almost a bowl. He missed sight on the quarry hill in two more, but still had 100m odds.

O’Donovan had a chance to close the gap there, but he was too tight on the left and made poor sight. O’Sullivan made clear sight and followed with three good shots to the steps go a bowl clear. They were just short of sight at Ballyhilty in three more and they made the cross in another.
