Congratulations to Kayden Lagana on winning the Masters 2026 title.
In the final, Kayden defeated Nicolai Mallia with a score of 257–221, after both bowlers qualified in the top two positions following the Quarter Finals and Semi Finals.
On their way to the final, Nicolai delivered a strong performance, winning his match 279–202 against his younger brother Mikhail, while Kayden secured his place by defeating Nicholas Muscat 256–172. The top six also included Matthew Magro and Tomas Caruso, who narrowly missed out in the earlier “low man out” stage by just a few pins.
This year’s Masters competition showcased an exceptionally high standard of play, with impressive scoring averages recorded across all three stages.
Notably, two perfect games were achieved during the event, one by Shaun Montanaro in the first stage and another by Mark Spiteri in the second stage, highlighting the quality and competitiveness of the tournament.
