Player Comments:

  • "Morning game @Kingston Rec which meant courts were a bit slippery and it was really difficult to feel confident about your footwork on the court. It was a match of 2 halves - I was 4-6, 0-4 down but then managed to find some better rhythm and won the next 12/13 games. Thanks Antoine for the game."  -- Siddhartha

Player Comments:

  • "James & I know each other’s game inside out having played quite a few times over the past year or so. It’s always a battle against him as there are no easy points with his exceptional defensive skills. 1st set was pretty close till 3-3 when I managed to string a few games together. 2nd set was relatively easier but still had to work really hard for this win. Great game mate, all the best for remaining matches!"  -- Siddhartha

Player Comments:

Player Comments:

  • "I managed to edge a very tight first set on the tie break. From there Sid came back strong and played some great tennis in set 2. In the end he made a few too many errors allowing me back in to win the third. Sid plays in a very attacking aggressive style, when it comes off his cross court forehand winners and drop shots are incredible. Well played. "  -- David

Player Comments:

  • "Piers is a nice person to play with, friendly and fair in his calls. He plays solid from the baseline and has a nice touch perfect for drop shots. We started the match with one of the sides of the courts being exposed to the direct sun light so it made very hard for both of us to play our tennis. As the sun went down the situation improved and we were able to have longer rallies and enjoy the game. Piers was able to dominate the first set while I had a good comeback during the the second set despite lack of energies from both side maybe due to the high temperatures and poor hydration. Too many unforced from Piers during the Super Tie-break helped me winning the match. Thanks Piers! "  -- Niccolo
