Nick Brett broke the internet with his “incredibly satisfying” and “ridiculous” viral bowls shot at the World Indoor Championships in 2020.

Before the pandemic, Brett was dominating social media with his pinpoint bowl penetrating a gap of miniscule gap of less than six inches to get to the jack in the pairs final. 

After battling a broken arm sustained playing golf in 2021, Brett is back and gunning for glory outdoors on the Birmingham lawn.

The Peterborough-born bowler is vastly experienced and in 2020 narrowly missed out on being the first player to complete a sweep of World Indoor titles in the same year, losing out on a tie-break in the singles – a title he lifted in 2016 – to Robert Paxton after lifting the Pairs and Mixed Pairs trophies.

It was a hugely successful campaign at Leamington Spa’s Victoria Park and some thrilling games saw Team England leave the plush lawn with six medals including two gold, two silver and two bronze.
