After watching/reading, from the comfort of my own home, Tod Wood"s excellent attempt to defend his title I have decided to ask a few questions:
1. What is the closest someone has come to retaining a title (is Tod the closest with a 5th finish)?
2. Has anyone won back to back Medals (i.e.: One in March followed by one in April)?
3. Has anyone won the same title twice?
I await ANSWERS!!!! ;D

1. Darren Shallis - 2nd
2. Online I"m sure a few have and live maybe Rodders?
3. Wayne Parker - UK Team Championship 2010 and 2011

Thanks for a prompt reply... However!!!!! ::)
Q2. I was only thinking of LIVE games.
Q3. Was only thinking of individual achievements and not TEAM EVENTS
I really should be more specific in my questions! :P

The answer to question 3 is NO

1. Darren Shallis - 2nd
Pretty sure this second was in the Europeans at Luton last year and he only (lol) finished 6th in dublin trying to retain his title.
I think tod"s performance (6th) was therefore the joint best title defence.
Rodders did medal 2 live ones in a row, and I can"t think of anyone else who has done this.
Ian Burnett did medal the English champs in consecutive years.

The answer to the revised question 3 is NO
FYP
The original question was "same title" so my answer was therefore correct.
