Picture Gallery: Brighouse's Hirst wins British Crown Green Ladies Merit title on home soil

Chloe Hirst produced a brilliant display to win the British Crown Green Ladies Merit, played at Brighouse Sport Club on Saturday.

The 24-year-old, who plays for Hove Edge BC and Lockwood BC as well as the Yorkshire County Ladies team, trailed Mid-Cheshire player and former winner Nicola Boulton 20-19 in the final but fought back to earn her a place in the BCGLBA Champion of Champions final in September.

It was a fitting win for the White Rose player, with the final taking place in Yorkshire for the first time in 21 years.
