Hector Philp

Hector Philp is a former international lawn bowler who represented Rhodesia. His recorded achievement is a bronze medal in the pairs event at the 1958 Commonwealth Games, which he won in partnership with William Yuill. Rhodesia, the southern African territory that later became Zimbabwe, sent a bowls team to those Games, and the pairs bronze is the result that places Philp in the record of Commonwealth Games lawn bowls medallists. The source article is short and gives no birth date, club or later career details, so this entry records only what it supports: his nationality as a Rhodesian, his sport as lawn bowls, and his 1958 Commonwealth Games pairs medal.
