- "A very close first set with 2 breaks of serve each, Jonathan let 2 set points slip by but dominated the second establishing a 5-2 lead before Stuart rallied back to 4-5 , Jonathan served out for the second set to level up the match.We played a tiebreaker to decide the match due to the quickly fading light , Jonathan stormed into an 8-2 lead with Stuart just hanging in there suddenly it was 8-7 and a miraculous comeback with Stuart saving 2 match points and winning 11-9 . A great match well played Jonathan." -- Stuart
