Second Plate win of season for Donovan

JOHN Donovan (Camden Town) claimed his second Plate winner’s trophy of the season in Swindon.

In an all-Silver Tour final, Donovan beat Chloe White (Havant) during the sixth and last legs of the Cuestars Under-21 Gold, Silver and Bronze Tours at Jesters Snooker Club.

For women’s world No 20 White, is was a first trophy of the campaign.

The event was sponsored by trophy supplier Don Rogers Sports (www.donrogerssports.co.uk), Swindon-based window cleaners Clean Cut (www.clean-cut.co.uk) and Jesters Snooker Club (www.jesterssnooker.co.uk).
