Theresa Brousson (MLT) gets a last crack at David Eldar (AUS) but loses 395-497, so it's down to Helen Gipson (Sco) and Eldar. Gipson's 449-395 win over Steve Polatnick (USA) dims Polatnick's chances at finishing in the money slightly, while doubling her chances of finishing first. Brousson has just a half-game lead over Chinedu Okwelogu (NGA), Tony Sim (SGP) and Polatnick, and will have to work hard to win third place.

No tea break in the afternoon; people have early evening flights home to catch tonight.
