Player Comments:
- "Thanks to Andrea for coming over to Peppard and providing balls. Perfect conditions, with a little breeze. We had a very close first set, Andrea went 2-0 up but gradually I managed to pull it back, after some exciting games and rallies. Andrea has a great first serve, with some of the fastest I have ever encountered. In the second set we had some close games (one with a couple of scoring errors, apologies), but Andrea started making too many errors. Enjoyable match with a great sportsman. Good luck in your remaining matches. " -- David

- "Lau started the match brilliantly with great serving and many winners, taking the 1st set 6-1. I started the 2nd set much better and took advantage of Lau's dip in form to win the 2nd set 6-1. My form continued and I got to 5-2 in the final set, before Lau fought back, winning the next two games. I managed to break Lau's serve to win the final set 6-4. Some great rallies and retrieves! Good luck in the rest of your matches, Lau!" -- Phil
