Group Summary:
With four players completely new to the league, there was always a good chance of a new champ emerging, and that's what happened in this absorbing round. Liviu-Dan played like an old hand, completing and winning all his matches (and of course, earning bonus points!). It was a fantastic contribution and his generous and supportive commentaries give a real flavour of the tennis. "It was a amazing experience for me playing in this league and winning it makes it that much more special for me," Liviu-Dan wrote, and it was great having you play! Curtis, also new to the league, got closest to Liviu-Dan in the chase, with three good wins of his own, leaving Glen to pick up the bronze.
