Scott Taylor was victorious on Saturday as he crowned the winner of Week Eight at the Modus Super Series, after defeating Marvin Van Velzen in the final to secure a place in Champions Week and winning the weekly £5,000 top prize.
Taylor, who entered the finale having finished 2nd in Group B on Thursday and Friday, began the night by winning just one of his two group phase matches, as he firstly defeated Anton Ostlund, before suffering a defeat to Kurt Parry. However, the Englishman did progress through to the Semi Finals, where he came up against Scott Baker, and from there, Taylor defeated Baker, 4-3, to book his place in the final.
