He qualified again for the final stages in 1920 and reached the semi-final, losing again to Mitchell, who won for the second year in succession. In 1921 he qualified through a 36-hole event and won 6 matches to win the title. He met Jack Gaudin in the 36-hole final. Gaudin missed a three-foot putt at the last and the match went to extra holes. Seymour missed short putts at the second and third extra holes and eventually won the match with another short putt at the 40th hole. He won £200 for his victory while Gaudin took home £50.
