Botley Park Tennis Courts

Giorgia: Had a lot of fun playing with Sophie on a sunny Sunday morning. She gets to every ball, has a great first serve, and a strong crossed forehand. The score doesn't tell how challenged I truly felt! Lots of deuces and advantages too. I hope we can play again soon. Good luck with the rest of the division!

Sophie: Giorgia is being very kind. She is a great opponent and definitely the stronger player! I think warming up more on cold mornings is a good idea, but a pain in my leg isn’t the reason for the score, and maybe not a good excuse for only making it through one set. Sorry Giorgia!

Chris: Great job getting to everything, tough match

Joy: Great game

Sergio: Great match with lots of amazing points!

Finn: Very fun!

Flora: Absolute marathon of a match with Sophie. I'm exhausted. She gets to every ball. We had many long, long rallies. Thank you Sophie, you played amazingly. Also you're a very nice person, good to meet you!

Sophie: Wow! Marathon is the word. Plus we played through every type of weather! It was brilliant to play Flora - she is a great opponent with awesome shots, and a lovely attitude. I learnt a lot and enjoyed it!

Jacopo: Played in very hard conditions with the sun blinding us in the first set and complete darkness at the end of the second set, all with a wet court. Nonetheless, the second set was really tough with nick defending very well.

Nick: Enjoyable match with Jacopo despite the conditions. It took me a while to adjust but eventually managed to work my way into the match. Jacopo was super consistent and deserved the W

Flora: Thanks Elton, and well played to you too, that was really close. Your serve got more lethal as the match progressed and the tie-break went down to the wire!

Elton: Great match with Flora in slippery conditions. Some nice rallies and well deserved from Flora. Definitely brought me back to earth. Congrats

Sam: Cheers for the game Serge, tricky conditions with that sun

Serge: Thanks Sam, worthy winner and good luck with the rest
