Reveal CommentAlex Beaumont bt Carl Anderson (Sep 1) 6-1, 6-0

Player Comments:

  • "Not really sure what happened here as Carl is a very tricky player to play against, and I just seemed to be in the zone. Maybe because I've played 5 days in a row, I was hitting really well, whereas Carl hadn't played for a bit. Either way score doesn't reflect some top rallies/shots. I'm well aware that on another day Carl could easily flip this scoreline so look forward to next time as it's always unpredictable!!"  -- Alex
Reveal CommentAlex Beaumont bt Paul Cheeseman (Aug 30) 6-0, 6-0

Player Comments:

  • "Very unfair scoreline to Paul, who could definitely beat me on another day. However really enjoyed the match, and felt we were hitting pretty well. I just played pretty solidly and made fewer errors on the day. "  -- Alex
