Walter Phillips

Walter F Phillips is an England international lawn bowler. His best recorded result came at the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Cardiff, Wales, where he won a gold medal for England in the fours event, bowling in a rink with Norman King, John Scadgell and John Bettles. At the English national bowls championships he twice finished as runner-up, in the singles in 1968 and in the fours in 1968, so he reached two national finals in the same year without taking the title. His career as a bowler therefore spans an international gold medal at the Commonwealth level and close finishes in the domestic championships, though the sources used for this entry do not give his birth date, club or later career.
