David: A fantastic game with Oisin on a humid and cloudy morning at Acton Park! We started our match at 7.30am and this proved to be a good decision as the weather was relatively cool in the midst of a heat wave! The first set was extremely competitive and lasted around an hour! The majority of games went to deuce and the pendulum swung back and forth numerous times with both of us holding the lead and then relinquishing it! I took a 2-0 lead but Oisin turned the tables and moved 3-2 ahead. I levelled up at 3-3 and we traded games until Oisin finally broke my serve at 4-4 and then held comfortably to clinch the opening set! However, the second set was more one-sided as Oisin raised his level and I made too many unforced errors! While Oisin began to exert control with some commanding net play and clinical ground strokes, I kept on dumping the ball into net and wasting good opportunities! Oisin raced into a 5-0 lead and victory was almost inevitable at 40-15 in the sixth game. Having watched Andy Murray in the Olympics this week, I refused to give up and saved both match-points but it was a case of third time lucky for Oisin who sealed a deserved win! Well played Oisin! A great way to start the day! Thanks for organising the game! I really enjoyed meeting you and I hope we can play again soon! Best of luck in the rest of your matches!
