Player Comments:
- "Credit to Georgi for how he came back in the 2nd set. I feel I played a near perfect 1st, serve was really strong, but Georgi found his groove in the 2nd and it was a really tough contest. Some great rallies. A close tie break was probably about right. Good match." -- Tom

I played a very solid first set while David was wayward. 2nd set David played really well and hit a number of quality winners as I struggled to get any dominance. 3rd set naturally went to a tie break!

- "We finally found time to complete this very close match. It was strange re-starting at 5-5 in the final set - very tenses! Both of us played nowhere near as well as we had been previously and I was very lucky to edge the tie break 7-5 but it went neck and neck all the way to the finish line! After the match we played a friendly set which also ended up in a tie break. Always such a pleasure to play you Dotun and looking forward to future tennis league matches no doubt!" -- William

Reveal CommentWilliam Essex bt Paul Sheehan (Apr 30) 7-5, 6-0
Player Comments:
- "This was a hard fought match with a very close first set. I had 3 set points at 40-0, 5-3 up but Paul came back really well to bring a very tight conclusion to the first set. The second set was actually also very close with most games going to deuce. We had lots of very long rallies accross both sets with neither of us making too many errors or double faults which was a change for me at least! It was nice to play on the courts at Long Ditton Rec which have been resurfaced since I last played there. It was really great to meet you Paul and hopefully we can play again in future league matches!" -- William
