German started the brighter and took a 4-3 lead before Jeff responded and with two breaks of serve and a nervy hold Jeff did enough to take the first set 6-4. Jeff started the brighter in the second set to take a 2-0 lead before German fought back to level at 2-2. Jeff then took control by taking the next 3. German pulled one back before Jeff held his serve to take the set and match. A very enjoyable game played in great spirit. "  -- Jeff

  • "A closer match than the score suggests with virtually every game going to deuce, lots of break points and actual breaks of serve. The first set went with serve to 3-3, then a break, a hold and another break from Gavin took it. The second set was a case of who could hold their serve with four breaks of serve to 2-2. Then two nervy holds and to close breaks from Gavin took the match. A very tense match with lots of long rallies and some lovely winning shots from both players."  -- Gavin

Group Summary:

A full house of wins for Tom puts him out in front on what was a dream debut, though there were a few challenges along the way. Joseph and Patrick both took a set off Tom in their head to heads and made him find that something extra to emerge victorious. Hats off to Joseph too for securing second place and to you all for getting on court for every available match.

Group Summary:

Michael and Francis were the dominant forces in this group, picking up five wins each to move themselves to the front of the pack. With nothing to choose between the two in the standings it all comes down to their head to head and it was Michael that stormed through this encounter to claim the prize. Kudos also to Christopher who finished with a favourable winning record.

Group Summary:

It was nip and tuck for the title with Neill and Mark both chalking up a trio of wins and bonus points to finish level at the top. Their head to head was a real thriller and certainly a match worthy of deciding the new champ. The momentum swung back and forth until Neill eventually held on to a crucial break in the decider to prevail 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 - great stuff.

Group Summary:

Caroline showed a number of different sides to her game in this round, battling to a couple memorable victories in three set thrillers and also powering past opponents in double quick time. This turned out to be a recipe for success as she made top spot her own. Chris stayed right on Caroline's tail and only missed out on the gold by a single point. Good to see the group keeping us busy sending out bonus prizes.

Group Summary:

It would have been nice to see a few more matches played in this group, nevertheless this was made up for in part by the fantastic spirit on show. Nicholas made his way past "trick shots", "the sun" and a "good serve" to finish three wins to the good and on top of the podium. Jeannine pips Fiona to the runners up post thanks to one fewer game conceded.
