Player Comments:
- "Tom and I both started well into the match and had some very close games until mid of the set where I actually managed to win the only break of this entire match. It turned out I was very lucky to serve first in the set. The second match was head to head until the time-break where I've managed to win the important points. Have to say it was very hard work in both sets as Tom has a very good understanding of the game and reading the game of the opponent. Good luck with the other games. Thank you, really enjoyed this. Btw Tom's tip for the world cup is Belgium whereas I think it is going to be Portugal ;)" -- Julian

Player Comments:
- "A great, really competitive match. We exchanged breaks at the start, then both held serve until the final game, where I got over the line with a hard fought break. Sacha came out in the second set firing on all cylinders, and taught me the folly of going toe to toe with him! 3rd set was a more cagey affair, and I was just that little bit more consistent. Enjoyable match in great weather. " -- Tosin
