Bert Thomson, whose full name is Robert Thomson, is a Scottish international lawn bowler born in 1927. He competed at the first World Bowls Championship, held at Kyeemagh in New South Wales, Australia, in 1966. There he won a bronze medal in the fours, playing with Willie Adrain, Willie Dyet and Harry Reston, and he also took part in the Scottish team that won the silver medal in the team event for the Leonard Trophy. Lawn bowls is a precision sport played on a flat green, and the 1966 championship was the first world title event in the sport. The available sources are short, so this entry records his birth year, his nationality and these 1966 results only.
