David Theyers and Bev and Murray Billington, of the Warkworth Tennis and Squash Club, have once again increased their medal count in senior tennis.
The three competed in men’s and mixed doubles at the Tennis New Zealand Seniors National Champs, held in Christchurch, from January 21 to 25.
Bev says all three players enjoyed competing on grass at Hagley Park, in what she describes as ‘a blast from the past’.
Murray and Bev won gold in the 70-plus mixed doubles section, while David took gold with his partner in the 75-plus mixed doubles.
Murray and David also took silver in the men’s 70-plus doubles, losing a close final in a third set tie-break.
The pair have won 12 gold medals each in senior nationals, while Bev has 11 golds to her name.
The tournament attracted 170 players from around NZ.
