beating Taranaki 4/2.
Wanganui open women's champion Tara Raj, playing at No 1, would have been disappointed with her first match of the tournament losing to Waikato's Zahraa Bester 2/1 on Tuessday morning. However, her team mates rallied round to claim the game with Zhuoyi Hu finished all square with Robyn Pellow, while Brydie Hodge won her game 7/6, Lisa Herbert 5/4 and Lily Griffin 5/4.
