(100) I Finch 200 - 154 Nick Wood (25)
(15) (45) H Yard 200 - 125 Colin Young (120)
Colin Young started his game off well and took a big lead into the second half of the contest leading by 158-50, Harry Yard was struggling to get any momentum to string any meaningful scores together until quickfire breaks of 21 and 45 settled the nerves and applied the pressure to Colin, consistent scoring saw Harry take the lead 176-162 after another 20+ break and eventually ran out a 200-170 winner to progress to the final.
Nick Wood started the better of the 2 as he looked to hunt down Ian Finch, after starting 75 points behind Nick closed the gap to 26 with Ian only scoring a total of 10 points, that soon changed as Ian found his range and began to outscore Nick with some solid efforts including a 26 break, Ian got to 200 to win by 46 and complete the final line up.
