Collapse AllSouthampton Singles - Round 29 | Thursday 15 November 2018 to Wednesday 23 January 2019 (Midpoint: Wednesday 19 December 2018)

A well contested winter round in Southampton, with many great games and long rallies described in the post match comments. Thanks for taking part and we hope you enjoyed it, despite the often tricky winter weather conditions. See you next time!

Group Summary:

There was a familiar name once again at the top of group one as Tomasz stormed to a magnificent seven wins to pull clear of the field and add another title to his name. Radoslaw showed terrific dedication to play every match and with five victories from his time on court, including a marathon against Robert, and bonus points he climbs into second place. A pat on the back to Pablo too for finishing with four wins to his name.
