Bethnal Green Gardens Tennis Courts

Jyoji: Tristan has a big serve and gets to every ball. I was lucky to come away with the win

Tristan: Good game! Very close, not my best performance sadly

Alvin: Great macth. Thank you.

Adrian: Always a pleasure to play with Richard, we never had a dull match, be it in a competition or a friendly. Great display of tennis from him in the first set, coming back from a break down and taking the set quite comfortably, then carrying on with the form in the second set to lead 3-1. But tennis was 'tennising' today, something clicked in my game, I was feeling more confident in my shots, meanwhile a surge of unforced errors started to happen on the other side of the net, and I manage to win the next 5 games to push this into a deciding tiebreaker. Anything could have happened there, we both were a mini break up, but towards the end I just managed to keep a hold of my 1 point lead even though Richard was putting the pressure and following closely. Good match overall, it's always nice to play someone who has a nice variety of shots. Good luck in your next games, and I'll see you around!

Dave: A good match played with humour. Anthony has a great top spin forehand. Thanks Anthony and all the best for the league. Disclaimer: Beware the underarm serve! Haha!

Anthony: Great game, lots of fun, cheers Dave!

Alvin: Great and amazing slice and drop shot. I would definitely have a friendly match with Egor in the near future. Good luck for the rest of the league.

Egor: Nice game! Alvin is a really versatile player and the game was fun. Would be happy to play with him again.

Jyoji: A nice early morning match with Gordon. Had to stop a comeback at 4-3 in the 2nd set otherwise it would have been close. Good luck in your other matches

Gordon: Yes, first game back in London cold after three months so taking time to warm up. But given your energy level chasing down balls probably would have been the same result although maybe a bit closer. Good luck with the rest of your matches.

Richard: Thanks Baptiste for a close , enjoyable match. Yes next time we can speak in French!

Baptiste: Thanks Richard, and very well played! You played better and better over time, I got no answer at the end. See you next time!

Ben: good game in lovely weather! thanks for the match

Wenxuan: Good game. Lovely playing with you.

Alex: Exhausting match! Struggled to find my level but credit to Mike who also made it very difficult for me by refusing to miss. :) Thanks for the match mate and good luck in the next league

Mike: Think we both struggled with our shots today but a very even grind to the finish! Welldone

Kai: Thanks you for going through the effort of booking a second timeslot to finish the match. Well played! It could have easily gone either way.

Richard: Well played Kai. Thanks for a very enjoyable match. It was close right to the end with a 12/10 tiebreak! Hope to play again sometime.
