Richard Priest was a six-time winner in Series 58, with a points total of 697. He qualified for the series finals as #6 seed and took on Tim Reypert in the third quarter-final. Priest came out the winner with ease, winning by 37 points. In the semi-final he beat Peter Davies 100-70 in a game that was notable because Carol allowed 6 - 3 = 2 in the final numbers game. In the final, Priest had to take on the #1 seed David O'Donnell and went 13-0 down after two rounds, and never recovered. He did beat the #1 seed with MIRADOR but it wasn't enough to win the game, as he lost by 30 points.
