- "A match played to the sounds of the Beckenham David Bowie charity fun day. The first set was no space oddity with Robert deserving to take it 7-3. I then took the second set with some stardust. We had to call ground control to swap courts such was the length of the third set decider which I sneaked through 6 - 4. A great match, thanks Robert! ...... And I'm all out of terrible Bowie puns." -- Tom

Player Comments:
- "An amazing hard fought match in which Rob and I gave our all. There were many long rallies and only a few cheap points. The match see-sawed throughout. I somehow managed to fight back from a set down, and 1-5 down in the tiebreak to win the second set. I think that knocked Rob back a bit with the third set not quite as close. I'm already looking forward to our next match. " -- Malcolm

Player Comments:
- "This was one of the most gruelling matches I've played, brilliant fight from both players from the first point to the last. First set was nip and tuck, hardly anything between us both, before being settled 7-4 to me in a tiebreak. Pak came back strongly in the 2nd set to go 5-0 up, I brought it back to 5-4 before Pak closed the set out at 6-4. With both players exhausted the 3rd set was a slog, and at 3-3 I just about managed to get ahead and take the set. Thanks for the game Pak. All played to the backdrop of the David Bowie tribute event at the Recreation Ground, which was nice." -- Antonio

Player Comments:
- "An enjoyable match played in sunny conditions. The first set was very even with both of us continually breaking each other's serve until it was 3-2 to me. I then managed to hold my serve in what turned out to be the pivital game before gong on to win the set 6-2. The score in the second set does not reflect the tennis played. There was some good rallies and some tuff points won. It was just unfortunate that lots of Nicole's shots started to go out which gifted me the set. Thanks again Nicole for a great match." -- Chris

Player Comments:
- "A marathon of a match that lasted two and a half hours with the miles being covered as well due to the amount of running around being done by the pair of us. I managed to take a 4-0 lead in the first set before Mike fought back to 4-3. I then just managed to hold on to take the set 6-4. The second set was very even with a lot of deuce games being played. I managed to get a lucky break to lead 5-3. Mike then saved a match point before winning the next 4 games to take the set 7-5. The 3rd set was again very even and both of us could see this going to a tie break. I again managed to get a lucky break to take a 4-2 lead and with the momentum behind me I managed to see out the match and win the set 6-3. Thanks Mike for a great match." --
- "Really nice long match, didn't start well going 4 0 down, I could not get anything past Chris down the line cross court, long short they all came back as winners. Would like a rematch at some time, well done Chris, -- Mike
