Match Report
Match Report - 28 May 2009, Wrexham Lawn Tennis Club Mens Wrexham B Team drew with Cheshire Oaks B
A tight match on a very dry and sandy Cheshire Oaks court saw Jos and Daz perform their usual trick of giving away the first 5 games. Sam and Ian did much the same on the other court and this led to a spirited fight back from both to then level the matches at 2 sets each.
Championship tie-breaks ensued (typical Jos nightmare!) and the worst happened with both teams going down 11-9.
With that out of the way, the sun had dropped a little making the light on court more even and the second matches started. Once again Jos and Daz performed their opening trick and lost the first set 6-1 (or something like that) and then gritted their teeth and pulled the second set back (but only after a tie break!) A tense championship tie break followed but this time success was achieved with another very tight 11-9 score line.
Sam and Ian had a steadier time of it on the second match and took a solid 2 set win to level the score at 2 matches all.
To show how tight the score lines were though, these were the final results:-
Rubbers (CO 2) - (Wxm 2)
Sets (CO 5) - (Wxm 6)
Games (CO 60) - (Wxm 60)
