Collapse AllOxford Doubles - Round 10 | Thursday 20 June 2019 to Wednesday 28 August 2019 (Midpoint: Wednesday 24 July 2019)

Only five teams but an excellent and passionate round of tennis. We hope you had as much fun playing the matches and we have had following the results from a distance. As Charles might say, fantastico! Here's to the next round.

Group Summary:

It's never easy getting four people on to court all at the same time so well done everyone for getting 100% of the matches played in the group. And they didn't disappoint! The points table could have been even tighter if Fabio and Antonio had grabbed their bonus points, but their close battle with Charles and Helen, the group winners, was one of the highlights of the round! Overall four of the ten matches went the distance and judging by the commentaries this round was a lot of fun!
