GP Spring Series: Harry wins Game 2, Nici remains in first place
Tuesday, 13/05/ 2025
Harry won Game 2 of the 2025 GP Spring Series at Monday Night MÄDNess, thus narrowing the gap to Nici who remains in the lead overall.
Sissy, meanwhile, lost more ground and is a long shot to successfully defend the title won in 2024.
48 hours after Nici had started into the tournament with maximum points, Sissy and Harry seemed to collaborate quite a bit to prevent their froggy daughter from running away with the aggregate score.
However, the die was more on Harry’s side as he started his first PWL for first place with GRN4 after only 51 minutes of play. Right at the hour mark, he converted his first match point on a “6” followed by a “4”.
Sissy remained in the hunt for the bonus points even though Nici’s VIO4 clinched the 6-pointer before Sissy’s YLW4 scored the 4-pointer.
Harry would have had a chance for maximum points had he not had home fields (a) and (b) occupied while having BLK4 right in front of the house. Still, after 1:15 hours of play, he started his first PWL for the bonus points in addition to the 3 GPP and completed it eight minutes later by converting match point number five on a “1”.
At the end, Sissy had to be glad to at the very least have her RED4 score the 2-pointer while pressured by Nici’s BLU3.
At half time of the tournament, Nici holds a 5-GPP aggregate lead in front of her Dad. Trailing the leading position by 14 GPP, Sissy will need to score big in Game 3 if she is to stay in the hunt for the title.
Game 3 and 4 to see out the tournament are scheduled for the coming weekend.
