The Australian government would not allow the South African team to compete because of the South African policy of apartheid.[3]
David Bryant won his second singles title following his triumph in the 1966 competition.
Australia won the Pairs, England won the Triples and Hong Kong won the Fours.[4] The Leonard Trophy went to England who beat Australia into first place by virtue of having a higher shot percentage.[5] [6]
