John Gibbons - Position 4th in Black Group (ENG)

World Ranking at 1st August 2005: 16

John Gibbons will be widely tipped to do well when he competes in the event complete with his trade mark wide brimmed hat.

A Latin scholar he will have the opportunity to say "veni, vidi, vici" and despite being a qualified pilot, keep his feet firmly on the ground to present a real test for the rest of the field.

He started playing croquet in 1998 winning the All England Handicap event in that same year. He went on to win the English Eastern Championship in 2003 and has since represented England and Great Britain in International matches.

The 2005 World Championship will be his third appearance at this level, having competed in 2001 and 2002 when he won the Plate Event in Wellington, New Zealand.

His other interests include golf, cricket, skiing and travel.
