A Tale of Two Nines

Group A leader Lee Cocks and Yorkshire and Humber player Tommy Lishman both fired in perfect legs on Day 2 at the MODUS Super Series, with the 2 9-darters coming within a match of each other. 

This is the first time in Super Series history that 2 perfect legs have been hit in one session at the Live Lounge, with Lee hitting his against Pontus Danielsson before Tommy produced perfection again in the match straight after, despite a 4-2 defeat against David Evans where he averaged 106.9. 

“Cocksy” leads Group A on legs difference from Robert Thornton in 2^nd, after winning 3 of his 5 matches on Tuesday, with Robert enjoying a strong day himself, picking up 4 wins to move level with the leader on 14 points.
