Collapse AllSouthampton Singles - Round 28 | Thursday 6 September 2018 to Wednesday 31 October 2018 (Midpoint: Wednesday 3 October 2018)

Another well contested round in Southampton where nearly 80% of the matches on offer were played and many bonus prizes earned too. Thanks for all your efforts to get on court and for the many generous comments which we enjoyed reading as they came in. Here's to more of the same throughout the winter months!

Group Summary:

Tomasz dominance of group one continues, as he drops only a handful of games on his way to another unbeaten display to top the table for the sixth round in a row - can anyone put an end to Tomasz winning streak? There was a much closer race for second with Cristian, Pablo and Radoslaw all tying on seven points. After bonus points are removed we are left with Cristian and Pablo fighting it out for the silver. Unfortunately their head to head was unfinished at one set all so we need to some calculations to separate the two and thanks to fewer sets conceded on average it is Cristian who finishes as runner up. Well played all.

A very busy group two with lots of matches played and bonus points earned, well done to Robert, Christopher and Gary in particular who got on court against all of their opposition. Robert reaps the rewards of his efforts with the group two crown thanks to five hard fought wins. Andrea and Tom take the bragging rights for defeating the new champ with a couple of strong performances. Dennis notched up four wins of his own and a point from a very close defeat to Thomas to claim the silver by a whisker. .
