Grace Page
Grace Page was the runner-up of series 48, losing to Julian Fell in the final. She won 8 heat games with scores ranging between 90 and 120. In one game she got two nine letter words - FLAGSTONE and INSPECTED. She qualified as #2 seed (some way behind Julian Fell with 915 points), but beat David Nickeas only narrowly in the quarter final before beating Joe Zubaidi more convincingly in their semi-final. In the final, the numbers #1 and #2 seeds matched up against each other. Grace made a bad start, missing two nines in the first round and never recovered despite beating Julian with KNITWEAR. Grace appeared in the Championship of Champions XI, losing to Rupert Stokoe of Series 47 by just 10 points. Grace is the only woman to score over 800 points in eight heat games, and the only female Octochamp to make the finals of a Series since the 15 round format was introduced - Anita Freeland made the final of Series 56 but was not a Octochamp.
