Collapse AllWimbledon Park Singles - Round 51 | Thursday 16 January 2020 to Wednesday 11 March 2020 (Midpoint: Wednesday 12 February 2020)
As always a round full of great matches in Wimbledon Park, albeit many of them played in windy conditions. 115 matches were played which is not at all bad, though the stats were down a bit as a few players didn't get underway. Do let us know if we can help another time! There is nothing we like better than getting matches played!
Group Summary:
A very well deserved win for Keir who was involved in 5 of the 8 matches played in this rather quiet group. He overcame the big serving Renaldo - 'when his serve was working I couldn't get near it' and battled the wind in an epic against Scott. Well played. Federico is runner up and Tom has the satisfaction of beating the champ. Hope you can get more matches next time.

Group Summary:
If group one struggled a bit to get going, group two barely stopped. Almost every match was played and almost every bonus point won in this brilliant busy group. The tennis was every bit as good as the scheduling including a 'great' match between Delano and Ahmed 'some fantastic points played at a high level', 'awesome rallies' between Vladimir and Delano, and stoic resolve in the face of unpredictable weather from Peter and Wikus. When it was all over Vladimir finished in pole position, with Oliver in second place. Well played!

Then just as we began to play, with hey, ho, the wind and the rain arrived big time and informed the first hour’s play! It was a job playing positive shots on the swirling rain but Wikus edged ahead with more consistency. Our stoic resolve was then rewarded by blinding sun at one end and conditions that were no less tricky. It was a relief to stop Wikus going ahead at 4-all in the second set and to force the 3rd. There was nothing between us but I just managed to hit a few deep drives which tipped the balance my way in the final two or three games. Thanks, Wikus!" -- Peter

Group Summary:
A mostly busy group with some really close matches. David or Emily might have topped the group had they played and won a couple more matches, but as it is, gold goes to Morgan who won 4 matches our of 5. Well done! The reason Rachel couldn't enter the score (13-11) in the third set against Brendan is that all our matches are the best of 3 tie break sets, so at 6-6 you play a tie break! But great to see such a close match and 13-11 is no mean feat. A shame Tobin and newcomer Neil didn't get underway. Hope you ok!

Reveal CommentRachel Kift bt Brendan Mulcahy (Jan 19) 2-6, 6-2, 7-5
Player Comments:
- "3rd set score was 13-11 but the form doesnt allow me to enter this. When we got to 6-6 in the 3rd neither of us could remember LTL rules on match completion so we kept on playing. On and on...! Such a close, hard fought encounter throughout and some great individual shots. Unfortunately Brendan slipped towards the end of the match and this may have given me an advantage as he recovered his calm. But we were both properly exhausted and in need of a big lunch at the finish. Thanks Brendan, really enjoyed playing again. Hope we both recover well and complete the group" -- Rachel

Group Summary:
You never know how games match up in tennis. Don beat Andrew, Maria beat Don and Andrew beat Maria! Just one reason this was such a tight group. But Luis is the new champ, emerging undefeated in four matches (though tough challenges from Maria among others meant it was often a close thing!). Don is runner up (he tied on points with Andrew but won the head to head).

Group Summary:
Christopher made his debut this round and did so in some style, with, among others a really great game against William (who has 'a cracker of a serve'), and a 'gruelling but really fun' match against Isobel at the end of which he was on his knees! But it all ended happily with Christopher taking gold and William taking silver. Congratulations!

The early games went by quickly but things got much tighter in the middle of the match with a run of 5 or 6 long games that all went to deuce.

When she went 2 up in the second set I was worried we were going to three sets (after my 3 hour 3 set epic against Chris yesterday I would definitely have run out of juice!) but luckily I had another streak to take the match.

Chris is a solid player with a great serve, perhaps a little rusty but still brilliant play for someone who hadn’t played for 10 years.

Terrific scheduling and some excellent tennis propelled Colin and Ekaterina to the top of the table and though Elizabeth and Natalia beat them in a great match, even without the premature end to the round, the team couldn't be caught - the point won for the set they took of our bronze medalists ensured that.
