Dan McKim and Andy Vincent continue to duel for top honors in the Highland Games—Vincent led after the first day at the 2013 US Invitational Heavy Events Championships put on by the Caldedoonia Club of San Francisco in Pleasanton, California, but McKim came back on the second day to bag the title.

Vincent beat McKim on both stones, the two weights for distance, the 56 for height and the caber, but not by much, and McKim’s large margin over his key competitor on both hammers sealed his victory.
