Player Comments:
- "A really nice match with NJ who made me work hard for the win. One rally early in the second set went to about 30 shots, both of us hitting the ball really well. Ultimately I hit more winners and made less errors, but I feel run off my feet. Good luck for the remaining games. " -- Andrew
Reveal CommentPavel Novotny bt Leslie Okomi (Nov 30) 6-0, 6-3
Player Comments:
- "A match of 2 very different sets. Leslie's serve let him down in the first with too many double faults. Leslie did step it up though significantly in the second set and it was great tennis with great pace. And Leslie is super fit, puts me to shame! Thanks Leslie, until next time" -- Pavel

Player Comments:
- "Pradyumna is a lovely chap and we had a nice conversation after the match and shared a ride home. He hits really nicely but lacks consistency, which will come with playing more matches. I know I'm stating the obvious. Until next time, Pavel " -- Pavel

Reveal CommentAndrew De Csillery bt Richard Sloggett (Nov 21) 6-2, 6-4
Player Comments:
- "Richard is incredibly fast and a great defender so I had to work very hard to go for the winners close to the lines - a few too many errors but I got there in the end. Second set in particular was very competitive. Well played Richard and look forward to the next game. " -- Andrew
Reveal CommentAdam Green bt Andrew De Csillery (Nov 19) 6-4, 7-5
Player Comments:
- "A very good match with Andrew, our second meeting with the last one, also close, cut short due to injury. There were lots of momentum shifts through the match. Andrew is a strong hitter with an amazing backhand that I tried to steer clear of. He hit a lot of clean winners and has an attacking style. I was able to defend well and kept consistency in longer rallies and movement was good meaning I got a lot back. I got lucky with a few lets at critical points including set point! My legs were getting heavy towards the end and think Andrew would have taken it in a third set! Look forward to the next battle!" -- Adam

Player Comments:
- "Pavel feels bad and shouldn't have won this match, he robbed Andrew of victory. Andrew is a fine man and excellent sportsman. The match was played over 3 sessions and swung back one way and another. Ultimately, Andrew didn’t take his chances when up 4-3 with a break in both second and third sets. Aiming for revenge next time, hopefully playing it over one session!" -- Andrew

Player Comments:
- "My second match against Pavel. He is a brilliant, attacking player with a lot of flair and creative shot-making. It forced me to raise my game and it was a very enjoyable, fast match and a great workout. It's great to test yourself against high quality players. Look forward to playing again! " -- Adam
Reveal CommentPavel Novotny bt James Aviles (Nov 15) 6-0, 6-0
Player Comments:
- "James has his young legs and height on his side. With a bit more practice and ultimately consistency, I am sure he will do well in Group 1. I used to get beaten and beaten badly in my initial stints in this league those years ago, and managed to win a few times since. Don't give up James!" -- Pavel

Player Comments:
- "Tim is a lovely player with all the shots, this is evident as he raced to a 6-1 lead in the first set. However, I managed to crawl back the second set with an identical scoreline. I gathered enough rhythm in my game near the end to finish the tie break, but it could have gone either way. Cheers for the game and lift Tim! " -- Rupert
