Player Comments:

  • "Adam & I played a 3 hour 3 setter about a year ago to decide the league winner and last time we played he beat me easily so I was expecting a tough match today and it was. Adam as usual played some excellent forehand and backhand shots, with depth, angles, and top spin. His backhand is almost as good as that of Anais (both to be avoided if possible). Don’t forget a towel when playing Adam"  -- Rob
Anais Dabbadie bt Rob Slade (Oct 7) 6-1, 1-6, 6-4
Reveal CommentRob Slade bt Edward Mills (Oct 5) 6-3, 6-4

Player Comments:

  • "Very close and long match (2 hours, 2 sets) (plus 15 mins warm up). Several deuces on several games (mainly my serve where in one game there were ten deuces). Ed has got excellent ground shots, especially his back hand, and he frequently hit awesome passing shots and lobs if I came to the net. I won by making less mistakes and by hitting deep too soon to his backhand (what's new?). He punished any short balls with deep or angled winners. Great game and work out. A very equal and strong group. Anyone could beat anyone else in this group. Had a good tennis conversation (about matches in this league present and past rounds) and a drink in the David Lloyd lounge afterwards. "  -- Rob

Player Comments:

  • "Another excellent close match played with a good attitude. Danny had the better attacking forehand especially inside out, and we both played better than our last two encounters. The only thing we argued about was whether to change ends at 6-4 (or any even total number of games). I'm sure that we don't! Danny said that we should!"  -- Rob
