Player Comments:
- "Not reflective of Malik's ability. Enjoyable 2 hours." -- Mark

Player Comments:
- "A rare appearance at Cutteslowe, surrounded by quiet autumnal trees rather than people, which probably helped my concentration a great deal. First game of the second set was particularly hard-fought and felt important." -- Edward

Match Results:
Player Comments:
- "It was really nice to meet and play with Josh, we played some enjoyable rallies and Josh was always attacking and trying to come to the net. Somehow my defense play won out, but on a different day it could have gone the other way." -- Sebastien
Player Comments:
- "Very enjoyable match on a crisp early morning at Bury Knowle, with lots of close games - thanks Jamal!" -- Peter
Player Comments:
- "Match started in some fairly damp and breezy conditions but we were glad we'd made the effort as the weather improved somewhat and we had a great match. All sets were closely fought with some great rallies there was very little between us in all three sets. " -- Andrew
Player Comments:
- "Really close first set, I felt lucky to come back from quite a few games down. Nice to meet and finally get to play with Jon after one failed attempt." -- Sebastien
Player Comments:
- "I will be serving on the resumption at 15-30 in the opening game of the second set." -- Jamal
Player Comments:
- "Peter had a fantastic come back in the first set but lost out on the tie breaker. It was great to meet and play with Peter on this fine morning. " -- Sebastien
Player Comments:
- "Stephen overcame a rather nervous start and ended up playing really well. I served for the first set at 6-5, having saved a set point at 4-5 but it got to a tie-break with a very predictable outcome! We had some good rallies as we battled the teeming rain on a relatively deserted Florence Park. Stephen noted that we were wearing the very same orange Casio watch, too!! Thanks!" -- Jamal
Player Comments:
- "A good match with Jamal, particularly the second set, which could have gone either way." -- Joshua
Player Comments:
- "Very close match" -- Jon
Player Comments:
- "We had some great weather after a week of rain, Andrew played some cracking shots and we had a close first set, the second set had much closer points then the score suggests." -- Sebastien
Player Comments:
- "Competitive match played on a glorious Autumn afternoon." -- Andrew
Player Comments:
- "This was a close match that could have gone either way, with some good rallies throughout both sets. In the end I was able to hold my serve ate a couple of crucial times. Looking forward to a rematch some time." -- Joshua
Player Comments:
- "Great game at an amazingly sunny but deserted OUP! Lots of close games and frequent deployment of Jon's fast, low first serve so I was grateful that he'd spent the night before moving heavy equipment, which levelled the odds!" -- Peter
