David Thirlwall was the first octochamp of Series 52, after opening his account with 4 wins in the last games of Series 51 before the series finals. David's only century was in his debut game on 8th June 2004 against two-time victor Mark Hannon, when compiling a 102-95 scoreline.
David's record of 704 points meant he returned as #7 seed for the finals, running into Jack Welsby in the quarter finals. David never really seemed to find his 'A' game this time around, the 93-58 scoreline in favour of Jack ending the career of David.
