:11:15. > :11:20.obscured the jack. It is all about pace. I do not think he has got any.
:11:20. > :11:30.When you're struggling a little bit you have to revert to the
:11:30. > :11:30.
:11:30. > :11:38.percentage shots. I think it was a bad decision. Quite a big target on
:11:38. > :11:48.the forehand side. His strength is a draw, but it is not working today.
:11:48. > :11:53.This should be a fairly hefty count. I would expect him to put half a

:12:04. > :12:12.counting, it is definitely counting. It is in. It caught the green bowl.
:12:12. > :12:18.Three shots to Paul Foster. That was an easy three. He did not get
:12:18. > :12:28.one bowl within 13 inches of the rest. Once again, Foster has the

:13:48. > :14:30.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:14:30. > :14:35.more. It is not about. Two and in front. It has been a while since I
:14:35. > :14:41.have seen him struggle like this. We did his commentary against
:14:41. > :14:47.Jonathan Ross. He got over his second set. He will not be happy
:14:47. > :14:56.with his form. This one appears to be wide and heavy. What is going
:14:56. > :15:02.on? He will have another three shots against him here. He is not
:15:02. > :15:12.easy to push the jack back and through. He bought probably feel
:15:12. > :15:17.
:15:17. > :15:27.that two is enough here. -- he will probably feel. He is happy enough
:15:27. > :15:35.
:15:35. > :15:45.with two. That counts. As has become a vital bowl for murder of -
:15:45. > :16:14.
:16:15. > :16:19.heavy. It looks to me as if our man will be making the semifinal. Paul
:16:19. > :16:24.Foster wins and continues his progress in this tournament. He is
:16:24. > :16:31.through to the semifinals for the sixth time. Our next match also
:16:31. > :16:37.feasted two former champions. John Price and David Gourlay. Gourlay
:16:37. > :16:47.Price and David Gourlay. Gourlay started in good form. We would join

:18:36. > :18:46.tiring when you're playing against this. Beautiful to watch as a
:18:46. > :18:56.spectator. I do not think John will be enjoying this game at the moment.
:18:56. > :19:35.
:19:35. > :19:41.When things are not going well it to it. Not a good experience to
:19:41. > :19:50.play David Gourlay in this sort of form. I feel for him, but this has
:19:50. > :20:00.been fantastic. He would have to have a good bounce of the jack. A
:20:00. > :20:05.
:20:05. > :20:15.good choice of shot. Missed the target. That was his last bowl.
:20:15. > :20:37.

:20:42. > :20:52.John Price has run up against a steam train here. David Gourlay is
:20:52. > :21:01.
:21:01. > :21:06.like an express train going through when John was in his prime. He has
:21:06. > :21:16.been playing well. He has had a good tournament. He has just been
:21:16. > :21:16.
:21:16. > :22:30.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:22:31. > :22:40.good bowl. A six-inch gap. Two or is the shot. Every time John gets
:22:41. > :22:42.
:22:42. > :22:52.one close, David gets one closer. John always has the same action on
:22:52. > :23:01.
:23:01. > :23:11.delivery, a fluent player. Just dropping short. He can play up to
:23:11. > :23:32.
:23:32. > :23:42.his own bowl in fear of pushing his stuff, really. The quarterfinal of
:23:42. > :23:43.
:23:43. > :23:49.the World Championship. What could we ask you to do this time? The
:23:49. > :23:59.race so little available to John Price. -- there is so little
:23:59. > :24:00.
:24:00. > :24:05.available. The trouble is, he has been forced into this shot. When
:24:05. > :24:13.you were under pressure, the shots become harder. He has not been able
:24:13. > :24:23.to relax and get in to a good rhythm. David Gourlay is very fast
:24:23. > :24:25.
:24:25. > :24:34.down the rink. He has a little ritual, then of egos. Going wide
:24:34. > :24:44.for a position. He is giving John a lot of respect by pushing it
:24:44. > :24:47.
:24:48. > :24:57.through. Even that is back on the spot. Use within four inches of it.
:24:58. > :25:15.
:25:15. > :25:23.If John hit this, he may lose the hard with this one. On the front of
:25:23. > :25:30.hard with this one. On the front of all. It is a dull. -- a double.
:25:30. > :25:40.David Gourlay completed a very easy matter. He now joins Paul Foster
:25:40. > :25:40.
:25:40. > :26:35.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:26:35. > :26:42.and the last four. Next up is a but they have been told the player
:26:42. > :26:47.who wins the second set quite often goes on to win the tie-break. They
:26:47. > :26:57.have won the second set and a game is usually increased. Interesting
:26:57. > :26:57.
:26:57. > :27:37.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:27:37. > :27:47.Not bad. Not close enough to win this hand. -- this end. Any

:27:51. > :28:01.adjustment here in wait's he is pushing through a bit. I do not see
:28:01. > :28:13.
:28:13. > :28:23.jack. He is up after it, he must like it. This could win the end. A
:28:23. > :28:24.
:28:24. > :28:34.good bowl. He may be tempted to have a runner at this -- a run at
:28:34. > :28:36.
:28:36. > :28:45.this to open it up. He is certainly in the target area. What a great
:28:45. > :28:51.strike that was. Very accurate. A good result. A perfect strike. All
:28:51. > :29:01.three go, the crowd do not react. He would be happy with us. It gives
:29:01. > :29:12.
:29:12. > :29:16.Three days and bowls, one really good one. He needs to repeat that.
:29:16. > :29:26.He knows he needs to be within six inches of the jacket to put him
:29:26. > :29:29.
:29:29. > :29:35.under pressure. He just has to make the shot. The very good. The first
:29:35. > :29:44.objective was to get the shot. It also puts choices in his mind.
:29:44. > :29:54.There is room to draw. There is always a runner available as well.
:29:54. > :30:04.
:30:04. > :30:14.The respot is covered by a green ditch. What has he got? He has the
:30:14. > :30:43.
:30:43. > :30:53.long time. He was going to make the gap. Concentration levels are not
:30:53. > :30:53.
:30:53. > :32:02.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:32:02. > :32:11.in line for any emotion, what so Bowler jack is also good. Positive

:32:18. > :32:28.10 he hold on? Just going to drop away. Surprised he played it just a
:32:28. > :32:33.
:32:33. > :32:43.gentle weight. Any deal behind the wants to turn the jack around the
:32:43. > :33:08.
:33:08. > :33:14.corner, making it a bit safer. three seconds, one in. No choice.
:33:14. > :33:23.Another bowl in. It is not easy, but he Hasted get into this.
:33:23. > :33:29.Desperate to get another bowl in here. Otherwise Brett has a lot of
:33:29. > :33:39.opportunities. How close can he get? The line is good. It is all on
:33:39. > :33:45.
:33:45. > :33:55.weight. Feehan edge. That is good. -- thin edge. He needed a second
:33:55. > :34:05.shot. He has scored a time out at three times. There we are. --
:34:05. > :34:07.
:34:07. > :34:17.called. He has to play this gentle way now. He has two Pohl's Waiting.
:34:17. > :34:17.
:34:17. > :34:23.On the forehand. Just arriving, he is waving it down. I cannot see him
:34:23. > :34:33.coming back from there. Unless he gets an edge on his own bowl. Just
:34:33. > :35:00.
:35:00. > :35:10.Lely. -- nearly. We'd definitely the way, and it has. Will it go to
:35:10. > :35:47.
:35:47. > :35:57.the last bowl? Looks like a long last end of the tie-break. You have
:35:57. > :36:37.
:36:37. > :36:44.to nominate it. Keep the needs to pass his own to win. Can
:36:44. > :36:54.he get past it? That is perfect. What a bowl by peers. What a great
:36:54. > :37:02.
:37:02. > :37:10.bowl by Stuart Anderson. Just Brett. The line is good enough. How
:37:10. > :37:17.is this? This is a great shot. Perfect again, perfect again.
:37:17. > :37:27.Wonderful, marvellous reaction. Bread is really pumped up. He knows
:37:27. > :37:43.
:37:43. > :37:47.are all very close. He is going to try and kill it does. He has
:37:47. > :37:53.nominated to kill the head. He can nominate as many times as he wishes
:37:53. > :37:58.but he can only kill Edwardes. It does not happen very often. He is
:37:58. > :38:05.playing with enough weight and moved the jack off the ring. He
:38:05. > :38:15.looks to be in the area. I think he has done. He certainly has. The
:38:15. > :38:28.
:38:28. > :38:34.jacket is off. I great shot. Great in the replay end. Anderson has
:38:34. > :38:44.used his only option. Brett can use it. But it would not be available
:38:44. > :38:45.
:38:45. > :38:55.for Anderson, for a second time. She just saw herself. There you go.
:38:55. > :38:55.
:38:55. > :39:50.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:39:50. > :40:00.used his get down on jail card once. He knew he has not sent back.
:40:00. > :40:09.
:40:09. > :40:19.bowls. The replay is a bit more nervous. It takes a bit longer.
:40:19. > :40:29.
:40:29. > :40:35.Tension is definitely out there. It he has turned his back. What is
:40:35. > :40:45.going on? He has not push it. The line is good but did not push the
:40:45. > :40:55.weight. What a chance for Stuart Anderson. If Anderson gets in close,
:40:55. > :40:55.
:40:55. > :41:02.it blocks the kill. How close can he get? How close? I do not think
:41:02. > :41:10.it will be very close. Still roam. There is still REM. This is the one
:41:10. > :41:15.to do it with. It was in the box said. I would expect Brett Lee to
:41:15. > :41:24.draw this. This is the one you always want to win with, the third
:41:24. > :41:33.bowl. You have a spare. The line is very good. Can he get inside the
:41:33. > :41:38.growing? Too heavy. Just gone round. That was the problem. He needs a
:41:38. > :41:44.wonder bowl to win the match. has ruled all over the park at this
:41:44. > :41:54.end. It only takes one. Stuart Anderson knows he needs to be
:41:54. > :41:57.
:41:57. > :42:02.closer. Good time to usual last time out. He led the Opposition...
:42:02. > :42:10.Anderson kn Anderson knse enough to win the match. What would
:42:10. > :42:19.he give now for a front toucher? Quite a bit, I would say. The is
:42:19. > :42:28.the best lining he has had. He is to settle a little bit because it
:42:28. > :42:36.is running. Just over... Sitting on the edge of the lack. Wonder bowl
:42:36. > :42:44.time. He feels it is not close enough. I cannot blame him. We do
:42:44. > :42:54.not think it is close enough either. He has a good food to draw be shot.
:42:54. > :43:05.
:43:05. > :43:15.is about a good weight. He is close. Yes, it is coming back. He has not

:43:27. > :43:35.Anderson had a wonderful bowling throughout. He gets into the
:43:35. > :43:40.semifinals. The 2010 runner up is through to the semifinals. He will
:43:40. > :43:50.play David Goorney. One more spot in the last four up for grabs. It
:43:50. > :44:26.
:44:26. > :44:36.will go to Robert Paxton or Colin find another comeback. Yes, but it.

:45:18. > :45:26.position in his last round. He got inside the bowl. Picked up a four
:45:26. > :45:32.and then a single. Same situation. He has jot a short. He cannot
:45:32. > :45:42.possibly live -- lift up a big account, can he? This guy has had
:45:42. > :45:49.
:45:49. > :45:55.more comebacks than Frank Sinatra. Just to carry him forward. It has.
:45:55. > :46:04.Sort of set up the target. Having said that, he is lying two shots.
:46:04. > :46:14.Walker has no back position. If he hits the spirit, it will run
:46:14. > :46:26.
:46:26. > :46:36.through to the jack. Get it wrong, strike. He turned away from bad.
:46:36. > :46:44.
:46:44. > :46:51.Knew it was very close. Big bowl by Unless Robert can see something.
:46:51. > :47:01.Got a chance with this one. Looking good for number one. Absolutely
:47:01. > :47:20.
:47:20. > :47:25.the end. Very big end for both players. Looking for a very short
:47:25. > :47:33.distance. That will be close. Not sure if that will make it. Did not
:47:33. > :47:41.make it. That was a mistake. If you are going to play a short, it is
:47:41. > :47:51.almost better to bring the gnats are up. Give yourself three metres.
:47:51. > :47:51.
:47:51. > :48:33.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:48:33. > :48:43.Jack was only a few inches short of Colin Walker, a good line in. He

:48:58. > :49:40.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:49:40. > :49:50.Very good bowling. Robert Paxton is still in with a chance. Drop the

:50:00. > :50:00.
:50:00. > :50:10.number one. Yes, that is the one shot. The chance is still on for a

:51:45. > :51:51.
:51:51. > :51:59.win it. Forehand drop. Score a single. That's all he needs. He
:51:59. > :52:04.will be through to the semifinal. We know: Walker is a very good
:52:04. > :52:12.player, good international player. He has been an outsider in this
:52:12. > :52:22.event. But he has performed well. He is very close. Just needs to

:54:37. > :54:48.
:54:48. > :54:52.Colin Walker looking to match. she had a good a driver, get at the
:54:52. > :54:59.first bought up to the jack and beyond. Simply because you are
:54:59. > :55:09.leaving the funds Open. You are going to count them off, aren't
:55:09. > :55:14.
:55:14. > :55:24.you? Colin Walker needs a good win. He has played well. He is in.
:55:24. > :55:35.
:55:35. > :55:42.to be second. A good one. That's I can see the green bowl. It just
:55:42. > :55:48.have to be negotiated. He has to pull back hard. That is still a
:55:48. > :55:57.hand the bowl. He has made a big effort. Robert Paxton has played
:55:57. > :56:02.three very good bowls. He still holds the one. If Colin Walker does
:56:02. > :56:09.dog get these bowl close, he will have a shot. A difficult one, but
:56:09. > :56:15.he will still have a shot. He is trying to look into the through a
:56:15. > :56:21.red bowls. Very good line. He is very close. Very close to what he
:56:21. > :56:28.wants. He just wants a lot between the two bowls. That is a brilliant
:56:28. > :56:33.change of hand. Looks to me like it is locked in. There is a shot but
:56:33. > :56:42.he passed and moved the jack. He has to try to get this jack to this
:56:42. > :56:48.area. Could be off the other side. I think it has to be a forehand
:56:48. > :56:53.onto the green bowl. That is a tough shot. On that side as well.
:56:54. > :57:03.do not think he has any choice. He has one bowl to stay in the

:57:07. > :57:17.championship. What a time for: Walker. -- Colin Walker. One match
:57:17. > :57:24.away from a place in the semifinal. That is a hard shot. But he is
:57:24. > :57:34.close to the bowl. Just ran off it. He was God two shirts. But it is
:57:34. > :57:35.
:57:35. > :57:42.not enough. -- he has got two shots. Very good sportsmanship. He knew
:57:42. > :57:48.Walker was the better player on the day. What a time for Walker. He
:57:48. > :57:51.wins the match and goes through it into the semifinal for a Scottish
