In the final, he overcame the Mexican and WPH number one seed, Lucho Cordova. Mulkerrins' power serves and inch-perfect kills saw him win the first 15-2 and despite a late comeback in the second Cordova couldn't reel-in Mulkerrins who secured the victory 15-11 in the second.

Mulkerrins is now seeded Number 2 on the WPH ranking list. Next Pro-Stop for the Moycullen man is in 3 weeks time in Missoula, Montana.
