Gary Kelly got off to a winning start in the men’s singles.
The silver medallist from four years ago dominated the game against Fred Tafatu from Niue Island, winning by two sets to 0 (13-1, 8-3).
While the 36 year-old from Ballymoney ran away with the first set, the second was nip and tuck before Kelly sealed the win with a full house of four shots in the seventh and final end.
With only the group winner reaching the semi-finals, Kelly’s next game against New Zealand’s Shannon McIlroy on Friday morning will be crucial.
McIlroy recorded a big win over Tonga’s Liam Hill.
