STREAKER AT US OPEN 2021 ISO

He narrowly missed the podium on countback at the recent Southern Area Championships, despite leading every race, so he'll be keen to put that right at Staunton. Graham bought his Streaker just before lockdown and were it not for Covid we'd have a better idea of his form.

Graham Sexton of Fishers Green is another 2000 National Champion, as well as multiple ISO National and European champion. He arrives at Staunton off the back of his recent Southern Area Championships win, so is clearly one to watch. Jasper has already shown good form, taking podium places at several competitive Open Meetings.

He is well known in several other double-handers but new to Streakers last year. Jasper Barnham of Snettisham Beach is a multiple 2000 National Champion and a Dart 18 National and European Champion. Here we pick a few who we suspect will give the established names a run for their money. If you've followed the Streakers at all in recent years you'll already know those five, but this year sees an exceptional influx of new talent into the class.

He's still considered the man-to-beat and is clearly serious about retaking his crown, missing the first day of Salcombe Merlin Week to be at Staunton Harold this year. Tom Gillard of Sheffield Viking is eight times Streaker National Champion with an outstanding record across many other competitive classes. Whether he's been on the pies or the kettle bells through lockdown, he's sure to be on the (disco) beat! Steve 'DJ Enterprise' Blackburn of Leigh & Lowton also pipped Tom at Weymouth, showing he's got what it takes to win on the big stage. We haven't seen much of Martin so far in 2021, but three bullets at the Hornsea Open tells us he's still on his game. He upset the form guide last time, toppling man-to-beat Tom Gillard from his throne. Martin Penty of Beaver SC is reigning champion and won pretty much all the major events in 2019. So, here's our guide to the sailors to watch, starting with the top five from last time at Weymouth in 2019. The fully subscribed 50-boat entry includes several new faces, a number of which are well known in other classes but yet to show their true form in the Streaker. Streaker sailors from all over the country are heading to Staunton Harold next weekend (2-4 July) for their biggest Nationals since Carsington 2014.

They close with a postmortem on Torrey Pines, why people can’t seem to understand why a good or bad leaderboard does not equal a good or bad golf course, and a few other things they liked and didn’t like from muni setup.Steve Blackburn - runner-up at the 2019 Streaker Nationals © Karen Langston The Bryson circus is re-lived, from a tie for the lead to t-26, with amusing quotes about how it was really just one unlucky break or two between that and getting to 7 or 8-under. They express sympathy for the Mattress King, though Brendan doesn’t fully absolve him because of the drive at 17. There’s chatter about what’s to come, but mostly it’s an appreciation of what just happened. They start first with Rahm, his “firing at flags” approach and of course the final two putts. It’s been a week, but they’re giddy following an afternoon of bunched (constipated) leaderboard maneuvering and some unexpected extracurriculars, like Bryson coming undone, a streaker, a box of beer somehow being on the premises, and a ball in a tree. After a brief wait for the flyover to clear through, Andy and Brendan begin with the last episode on the 2021 U.S.
