Player Comments:
- "In the first set, I found good shots whereas Konsta struggled to find the right distance and get into the match. After few games, my serve started to be effective and I have been able to close the set comfortably. On the second set, Konsta went up to 3-0 changing his game . I had to adapt my game to recover and finally win it. Konsta was visibly tired from previous day (he played another league match) so he run out of stamina at some point. Nevertheless, great match and it was a pleasure to meet you and talk to you Konsta! We'll keep in touch and play again when possible. Thanks!" -- Marco

Player Comments:
- "This was a great match and the score doesn't reflect how close a lot of the points were as these two sets took about 80 minutes to play. At 5-3 in the first set I saved myself from two break points to finally take it after 8 long-fought deuces. Then in the very next game in the second set we fought it out over 5 deuces. Sophie plays with a lot of power and great control. The only thing that let her down was a number of double faults. Thanks for the match Sophie!" -- Paul

Player Comments:
- "What a curious experience playing at Ropemaker's Field was!! Serving toward a tower block (from the southern end) and what resembled a mini-crowd barrier rather than a net!! Fiona is new to tennis and her aim for this round was to win one game so now she is going to have to reassess her objectives!! Judging by some of her forehand winners, she certainly has the ability and enthusiasm to. No double faults, either! I was very impressed with her level, given she is a beginner. All the very best with your remaining matches, Fiona, and you are doing absolutely the right thing in order to improve i.e. playing more matches." -- Jamal
