DALY THROUGH TO DAN RIORDAN CUP FINAL There was no joy for Bandon bowler James O'Donovan who lost his Dan riordan cup semi-finalagainst Gary Daly at Bantry. Playing for a total stake of €17,600. O’Donovan had one of those off days where nothing ran right for him. At McSweeney’s farm in four shots Daly had almost a bowl of odds. After three more through Casey’s Cross Daly held a seventy meter advantage. A poor effort from O’Donovan when he missed Cronin’s bend with his eight.
