| Notes: |
| This was a three-player tournament. The scores given suggest a 4-round all-play-all tournament, though then one game between Hookham and Joyce is not accounted for. It might have been a draw, but the report did not say this, so I assume it was simply not played, since the ourcome was guaranteed by that point. |
