Player Comments:

  • "Great morning for Tennis. I started well in the 1st set, before Ben made it level at 2-2. I took the next few games and the 1st set. 2nd set was much closer. Still neck and neck at 4-4 and the match could have gone either way. Ben is very good at the net, so I had to pick out the corners. Some great rallies and perfectly placed lobs by both of us. Good luck in your remaining games. "  -- Paul

Player Comments:

  • "This match (thus far) is a credit to Ivan. His play is very consistent, and very technical. Although Ivan's racket fractured during the 2nd set (Ivan had a 2nd racket with him), he continued to play at the same level. Fortunately for me, I saved 'match point' in this 2nd set, and then went onto win the tiebreaker. Light stopped play at this point, and we intend to resume for final set this Thursday, 7th March. We are so looking forward to it; I cannot express what an enjoyable game of tennis this is. So many deuces, so many long rallies - unbelievable game !"  -- Sandra
  • "This match was simply terrific !!! It could have gone either way, however, Ivan had the edge and deservedly won the third set. We were playing some 90 minutes to complete this final set - so many deuces ! As said, a great match, and can't wait to play Ivan again ."  -- Sandra

I was half hoping he might be a new tennis coach and my opponent was yet to arrive. Nope. The rest of his shots were equally impressive. It was actually a pleasure to play William because he hits the ball so well that it meant some of my shots were half decent (not enough to win a game but hey). It was thoroughly decent of him to hang around and hit with me for a while after. Thank you. "  -- Antony

The third was just as close; we managed to get what we thought was the decisive break at 4-4 to serve for the match; only to reach match point multiple times but ran out of time with the lights!
