Player Comments:
- "Lovely weather, great to welcome Conor at my home courts again, great cardio and fun match, i was lucky enough to win this time, Conor well won our summer league match- so look forward to a 3rd match over the autumn/winter which i hope will be another good battle. Best Dave S" -- David
Player Comments:
- "Great match with some long rallies and great shots from both" -- Andreas
Player Comments:
- "Enjoyable match on a muggy afternoon. Conor hit his fair share of forehand winners as well as some strong serves early on. Looking forward to our next game! " -- David
Player Comments:
- "Another brutal match with Levi with another tie break! Levi dominated the first set and I had to battle back from 3-5 down. The low sun made it almost impossible for both of us to see the ball at one end, particularly in the second set which was another close contest." -- David
Player Comments:
- "Really competitive match (with some fine rallies) which really tested the fitness and endurance of both of us. Look forward to more. " -- Ian
Player Comments:
- "Two gruelling sets with absolutely nothing to separate us. The more tired we got as the match went on, the longer the rallies seemed to get! A late start meant we weren’t able to play the 3rd set which we were both grateful for I think" -- David
Player Comments:
- "Another close game! There were plenty of long rallies, deuces, a few good lobs, 2 underarm serves and drop shots scooped off the floor with just centimetres to go. We managed to fight through tired legs in the second set and after a few frustrating games hitting the same shot into the net I managed to win a few volleys and stop the set going to a tiebreak and possibly a third set! " -- Levi
Player Comments:
- "Great to see Dave again. I was fortunate to catch him on an off day but there was some enjoyable tennis and I'm sure we'll have our usual battle again soon." -- David
Player Comments:
- "Another tough match with Andreas, luckily managed to resist a fightback in the second set to get it won in straight sets." -- David
Player Comments:
- "Seriously tiring contest with David. He played some brilliant tennis especially in the second set which included a brutally long game at 3-2 that could have gone either way." -- David
Player Comments:
- "Fun match with Andreas as always on a slippery court. We carried on playing for another hour after until the legs couldn't take any more! " -- David
