Star’s front row seat for sporting history
- Local newspaper week
Callum so close . .
Saturday 17th October 2009, 10:40AM BST.
Shropshire’s top bowler has agonisingly missed out on a television appearance – by the narrowest possible margin.
Callum Wraight was beaten in the last 16 of the £10,000 Oceanico Champions Event by Darren Smith.
The Castlefields ace had trailed 20-12 but had fought back to level up at 20-20.
But the decisive end went the way of Smith, to leave Wraight wondering what might have been.
“I’m absolutely gutted because I wanted to be on television so much,” said the 23-year-old.
