Player Comments:
- "This was a tough win. Very windy match, which made it difficult to go for my shots. Jaroslaw definitely got more winners, but I had slightly more consistency in the important moments." -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "Thanks for the match Jarek, very windy and the lights didn't seem to come on early enough making the conditions difficult" -- Jack
Player Comments:
- "Very tough match played over 2 days. Jack started off very strong taking the first set. I managed to get my rhythm going and took the next 2 sets after a hard fought battle. All the best Jack." -- Uchenna
Player Comments:
- "Good competitive game, first set was like hitting winners, second set was like who can keep the ball in I guess. I believed I served well in the first set, but in second set I was serving too many double faults, and I have to slow down a lot to contain them. Second set was also like a roller coaster, I was ahead then I trailed, but then somehow I got lucky and won 3 games in a row to close it. I wish Jaroslaw all the best for his future games." -- Aviral
Player Comments:
- "A match in soggy conditions where neither of us were playing particularly well. I felt lucky to get out of the first set, but was the more consistent in set 2." -- Nick
Player Comments:
- "With damp and windy conditions, both of us weren’t playing at our best. Jarek started off slower in the first set. Second set was more competitive with Jarek taking the lead at 4-3. I was able to rally from behind in part due to Jarek gifting some unforced errors at key points in the game. Good match. All the best in your remaining games. " -- Uchenna

Player Comments:
- "I had the first set largely my own way, but then Jen rallied early in the second, breaking my serve. There then followed a mammoth ten-plus deuce game which I eventually won, which set me up for the rest of the match. Thanks for the game, Jen!" -- Patrick
Player Comments:
- "Was a pleasure to play Carlos again. Great match up and very competitive match. Look forward to playing again soon." -- Jennifer
Player Comments:
- "After a settling in period where we both held and broke to get to 3-3, I seemed to get onto a good run for the rest of the match. It was competitive all the way though, with probably half the games going to deuce - I just seemed to get over the line in most of them. Thanks for a nice match, Carlos!" -- Patrick
Player Comments:
- "A pleasant evening to play tennis. Some well achieved and some tiring races. Good luck in the next games." -- Carlos
Player Comments:
- "It’s wasn’t a difficult game to win because Pradeep doesn’t play tennis regularly . If you start playing weekly I am convinced that you will quickly become a much more competitive player . Good luck in the next games ." -- Carlos
Player Comments:
- "A nice match, played in good spirits. Thanks Peter, and good luck for your remaining matches" -- Patrick

Player Comments:
- "Always a close game with Peter. First set had four or five deuce games but I was perhaps a little more consistent than Peter. Second set continued in much the same form. Thought Peter was on a comeback run when it went from 5-1 to 5-3 but I managed to hold on and finish. Really enjoyable match, thanks Peter " -- Tony
Player Comments:
- "Thanks for the match Katie! The final result looks a lot more harsh than the truth, because I remember a number of occasions of you almost breaking away after deuce! With a little bit more coaching or with some more balanced groups you'll be winning matches in to time. All the best, hopefully see you around on the courts :)" -- Elliot
Player Comments:
- "Great match against Tony, which could have easily gone both ways. I had a little bit more consistency particularly in the third set, which is what made the difference at the end. Well played and best of luck for your next matches." -- Gianluca
Player Comments:
- "Another long match against Elliot, but we both played much better than the previous time. Thanks and good luck for your future matches." -- Gianluca
Player Comments:

Player Comments:
- "First match against Peter and it was absolutely enjoyable. Lots of good rallies and a very close tiebreak. Thanks Peter and best of luck with your next matches." -- Gianluca
Player Comments:
- "Really good match that started out even with me on the back foot and then I managed to somehow break away. I look forward to our next match." -- Sam
Player Comments:
- "Welcome to Tennis Leagues Katie. The journey starts here and although this ended as a clear victory, as you play on you'll see the benefits of regular play. Stick with it, get a few sessions under your belt and enjoy your tennis. I found it difficult when I started but I now know all the folk in the group and others in the club, and although you will be challenged, your confidence and game will grow. Good luck." -- Peter
Player Comments:
- "A really enjoyable match and I look forward to our next match." -- Sam
