Player Comments:

  • "A long and gruelling match played over two days and at two locations. Set one and two at Wolstanton through drizzle. I lost the first set 3-6 and managed to take the second set on a tiebreak as the downpour started. Finished the match with a third set today at The Westlands and I had to be stubborn and not let anything past me to take it 6-2. Great fun. Look forward to playing again!"  -- Daniel

Reveal CommentMichael Long bt Nick Carter (Jul 12) 6-1, 6-1

Player Comments:

  • "Lovely early session with Nick, who hasn't played regularly like me for 5+ years. Has a very solid forehand, lots of top spin that will score you a lot of winners. Many games went to close tie-breaks where the advantage was to Nick, though I managed to hold-off his mighty challenge. A much better player than the score or league table suggests, who has great knowledge of the sport. Top-man, let's hope we get to see Svitolina Vs Rybakina Wimbo final mate."  -- Michael
