By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
The Herlemann team won the Challenge Prince Héréditaire Jacques for a second time, crushing their rivals 13-0 in Sunday's final.
The Herlemann triplette claimed the Challenge Prince Héréditaire Jacques for the second time on Sunday, dominating the final with a 13-0 scoreline that left little doubt about the gap in class.
The tournament, named after the Hereditary Prince and held in Monaco each year, draws competitors from across the international pétanque circuit, making it one of the more closely watched fixtures on the Principality's sporting calendar outside football and motorsport.
For residents who follow the boules scene around the Principality's clubs, the result confirms Herlemann's side as one of the form teams in international triplette competition, with the margin of victory suggesting this was far from a contest.
