NORWAY'S Robert Wagner and Finn Jarkko Komula scored impressive victories on the second round of events of the SDC ProTour, held over the weekend of August 11 and 12 at the Hotel Tallukaa in Vaasky, Finland.
The double-header of €5,000 events for Scandinavian players saw 72 players competing on Saturday and 68 on Sunday in the second of four weekends in the inaugural season of the SDC ProTour.
Both of the winners from the opening weekend in June, Komula and Jani Haavisto, were in action in Vaasky and both enjoyed good runs the Saturday with Komula making the last four and Haavisto making the last eight, but it was Wagner who took the title, defeating Ulf Ceder 6-4 in the final.
On Sunday familiar names again made it to the latter stages of the tournament with Komula, who had missed out on a nine darter on the Saturday, continuing his good form by making the final where he took on Saturday night's runner-up Ceder (pictured).
A convincing 6-1 win for Komula gave him his second title of the series and left Ceder with a second successive final match defeat.
