Player Comments:

  • "This was a really tight match to kick off this round. The first set was literally a few points the difference - I had to save match points before the tie break and again in the tie break before sneaking it. Second set I had a bit more control by serving better after very nearly going 0-3 down, but we were both getting a bit tired and making a few more errors by the end of the set after the cumulative effect of lots of long rallies.

Both absolutely exhausted by the end with me just about hanging on for the second set."  -- George

  • "A great back and forth game spread over two lovely early morning sessions at Ladywell. The first couple of sets were full of long points and great shots, and I raced into a 4-0 lead in the decider before being pegged back to 5-4. Thankfully I was able to serve out for the win, but it's also great fun to play with Mike and it would have been a well deserved win had he got over the line himself. Cheers! "  -- Andrew

Player Comments:

  • "What a lovely sunny Saturday morning for a great game of tennis. I think we both knew early on that this was going to be a good tussle, but Omar struggled a little for rhythm in the first set and I managed to get into an early lead. Omar came back very consistently in the second set and we had a real battle with lots of long rallies and excellent defensive play. It was more of the same as we went to the tiebreak and despite being 5-1 down, Omar wrestled it back to 5-5 before a couple of unforced errors thankfully gave me the win. I think I would have been in trouble if it had gone to a third set, as Omar was getting stronger as the game went on. Thanks for a lovely game, let's play again soon"  -- Andrew
