NICK Bone clinched his third Kendal Club Championship with a striking repeat of last year's victory over Mark Povah.

Povah went to lunch 2up but Bone overtook him after the break and went 2up himself with four holes left to play.

There was another twist as Povah fought back to level terms and the match went to the 37th, Bone winning on exactly the same hole as 12 months ago.
