Hinksey Park Tennis Courts

Finn: Great ball striking from Will, was very close and could've gone either way in that second set (which was especially stressful, with Will making a comeback from 2-5, and saving a couple of set points in the tie break) - looking forward to playing again soon!

Will: Great game with Finn as always! The weather is great despite of a little wind. The second set was so tight that we both exhausted ourselves. Hope to play again Finn again!

Laurence: Thanks for the match Elizabeth! Scoreline seems totally unrepresentative of how the match felt - somehow I won five deuce battles in the first set - I think you had game or break points on almost all of them… really nice to play you, hope to play again soon.

Elizabeth: Great match Laurence! Lots of good rallies and deuces but you deserved to win. Look forward to playing again soon!

Silviu: Well played Beth! Started strong leading 2-0 but then the wind picked up and made everything much more difficult. Lovely to play again and will see you soon!

Elizabeth: Well played Silv! Always enjoyable to play!

Tom: Chris is an absolute gent being very patient with my senior brain. A very gusty game and low blinding sun made for challenging conditions. Chris had me beat with the ground strokes and I had to resort to hitting the ball short. Thanks Chris. A good game to finish the season. Hope to play again soon.

Chris: Great consistent play from Tom in very challenging low sunlight! Thanks for the game

Finn: Neither of us played our best tennis but was good to play regardless :D good lob practice for both of us at the very least

Silviu: Well played Finn! You didn't have much of an opponent today, looking forward to playing again!

Jakob: Great match with Vinay. The first set could have gone either way, with almost every game going to deuce.

Vinay: Thanks Jakob. Really enjoyed our game today.

Anurag: Good game with today Boxiao - who has great footwork and a smooth backhand despite having recently started playing tennis. I was able to power through both sets today but it shouldn't be long before Boxiao's game improves beyond my level.

Saif: Thanks Marco, really good game, definitely thought that was going to a third set. Good luck with the rest of your matches!

Marco: Great come back for Saif in the second set down 5-3. Well done!

Saif: A great match and exhausting second set - Paris has a great forehand and lots of variety in his play, always keeping me on my toes. Very close to going to a final set! Well played and looking forward to playing with you again soon.

Paris: Well deserved win. Saif has consistent and powerful shots. Thank you for the great game. I got exhausted with our long match but it was amazing.
