Martin Bishop was a finalist in Series 59. He won 8 impressive heat games at the end of the series, including scores of 115, 111, 110 and 109. His final game yielded 83 points, just 12 short of the 95 needed to become #1 seed, surpassing Charlie Reams. He therefore returned for the finals as #2 seed and breezed past #7 seed Lee Simmonds 112-64 which set up a mouth-watering semi-final against Junaid Mubeen who'd scored 124 out of a possible 127 in his quarter-final against Neil MacKenzie. The semi-final didn't go to plan for Bishop as Mubeen beat him early on with SPATIAL and ROMAINE. In the later rounds, Bishop looked to be in with a chance when Mubeen has PRECASTED x disallowed (the past participle of PRECAST is PRECAST) but when Bishop had SOMAINE x disallowed, the game was all over, although it was Mubeen that scored on both the final numbers and conundrum.
