David Murphy and Thomas Mackle, the most decorated bowlers of their generation, face off in what promises to be an epic All-Ireland senior road bowling final at Ballincurrig on Sunday.

It is a reprise of the 2018 final, won by Murphy, but is also a final that can raise the winner from gold to platinum standard. That it’s over in Ballincurrig will add a certain spice as they are the two big names in King of the Roads too.
