Eliano: Great match with some long games. Good defence from David and tricky forehand spins, made for some fun rallies. Good luck with the rest of the league!

David: A competitive game with Eliano on a sunny Monday evening at Chiswick House and Gardens! Both sets could have gone either way but Eliano was more clinical in key moments and deserved his win! I made a positive start and held my serve in the opening game. However, Eliano won the next three games to take a commanding 3-1 lead. I fought back to level up the set at 3-3 as we enjoyed some long rallies! At this juncture Eliano took control and won the next three games with relative ease to clinch the first set! I started the second set strongly and took a 2-0 lead. Unfortunately for me, Eliano once again flipped a switch and turned the tide in his favour. Eliano levelled up at 2-2 and then won a gruelling fifth game with around six deuces to edge 3-2 ahead. I had several opportunities to win the game but couldn’t take them and Eliano eventually prevailed. He subsequently extended his lead to 4-2. Although I reduced the deficit to 4-3, Eliano cut short the longer rallies with more aggressive groundstrokes and powered to victory! Well played Eliano! Despite my best efforts, you were simply too good today! Nonetheless, I really enjoyed the match and it was great to meet you! I hope we can play again some time! Best of luck for the rest of the season!
