Collapse AllGuildford Singles - Round 33 | Thursday 1 October 2020 to Wednesday 4 November 2020 (Midpoint: Wednesday 28 October 2020)

Such a shame we had to end the round two weeks early due to lockdown but at least quite a few matches had already been played in both groups! A great effort from everyone and we look forward to getting going again soon!

Group Summary:

There was a new face at the top of Group 1 as Daniel finished as champ on 3 match wins and 8 points, 2 points clear of runner up McDonald. Geoff scheduled 3 matches but was unlucky to be on the losing side of close 3 setters against Bal and McDonald, the latter an "epic match with huge momentum swings" ending in a third set tiebreak which McDonald won after saving 2 match points.
