Tremendous Achievement as Kimberley leads Britain to Grand Slam Glory!
Congratulations to Roy Kimberly, Matt Duffy and Karl Read, the trio of British players who stormed the precious metals vault at the 2006 European Pool Championships and got away with Gold, Silver and Bronze in the Men's 9-Ball Wheelchair Division.
Britain's only Gold medalist at the entire event, Roy "Kimbo" Kimberley, from Birmingham beat fellow Brit Matt Duffy 7-5 in the final.
Duffy, from Clydebank in Scotland, secured his spot in the final after he totally routed Germany's Tankred Volkmer 7-0 in the semi final and receives the Silver Medal for the runner-up spot.
Karl Read, from Great Yarmouth, was awarded the Bronze Medal for another outstanding performance from a British player, only beaten by the eventual winner, setting up a full set of Gold, Silver and Bronze medals coming home to the UK.
