BICESTER and Oxford City veteran David Kuester will undergo keyhole surgery on his troublesome shoulder despite enjoying a fruitful day in Derby.

Kuester won the 70+ age group at the Midlands (British) Masters Throwers Group (MMTG), Weight (Throws) Pentathlon competition at the Moorways Stadium, with a total of 2,869 points.

He was also awarded the MMTG gold medal and the British Throws M70 Shield.

Kuester, who goes under the knife tomorrow, is hopeful of returning to competitive action in time for the World Masters Championships, in Perth, Australia, in October.
