  • "Great match Vishal and nice to have met. Rocky first set from Vishal as I raced to 5-0 but he found his rhythm and clawed back 2 games and took the form into the 2nd which he led all the way up to the tie break so well played! Look forward to our next match, thanks Vishal! "  -- Kyle

Reveal CommentAdam Drew bt Tom Guzik (Oct 4) 6-3, 7-5

Player Comments:

  • "Great match again with Tom. Heavy rain before hand meant we warmed up sweeping the courts! Tom must be a fair weather player as he suffered in the wet first set but came back strongly when the surface dried up in the 2nd and it could've gone either way. He had consistent serving and a mean backhand as usual! Enjoyable game! Thanks"  -- Adam

Reveal CommentTom Guzik bt Vishal Davda (Sep 21) 3-6, 6-1, 7-6 (12-10)

Player Comments:

  • "Ridiculously long and difficult match against Vishal. He come out the traps flying to take the 1st set and definitely felt like he was going to get his first win over me. I managed to take control in the 2nd, and at 3-1 in the 3rd with a couple of break points, felt like I had done enough to wrap this up. He kept close in the set and attacked when I was serving out the match to break me back. All that was left was the tiebreak which was just a war of attrition, Vish spurned a couple of match points and eventually I was able to do enough to crawl over the line. 2 and a half hours under the lights and the match was mercifully over! Well played Vish, won’t be long before you get that win over me! Good luck for the rest of your matches!"  -- Tom

Player Comments:

  • "Belter of a match! Each set dominated by the respective player with a close tie break 3rd set. Relatively similar styles, with some booming serves and long tiring rallies. At one stage I had to lie down on court to recover! Flood lights came on for the 2nd set and Kyle played superbly. Very consistent player and he'll provide a good challenge in the rest of his matches. Best of luck!"  -- Adam
