open SUPERSETS singles competition. Dependant on entries there
will be £100 for the winning player. The entry cost is £5 for

There were many similarities between this summer's Wilton club tournament
and the other one held earlier in the month at our slightly larger neighbouring
club. We too struggled with the weather. Even on Finals Day rain caused
players to come and go off court. Spectators became frustrated and there was
talk of extending to a third week! We also had a defending champion who held off
a determined challenger in the best mens singles final for years. For Federer
and Nadal-read Balm and Brooks!Special congratulations to Ashley for his 25th
title in club tournaments. Our equivalent of Jamie and Jelena were the untried
pairing of Dham and Kim who came back from set and 5-2 down to defeat the
established pairing of Ashley and Jeanne in a thrilling last set tie
break.
Results:
Ladies Singles: Jacinta Gunn bt Jeanne Vermaak 6-3, 6-2
Mens Singles: Ashley Balm bt Henry Brooks 6-1, 4-6, 7-5
Ladies Doubles: Kim Freebairn and Jacinta Gunn bt Christa Gecheva and
Michaela Knespl 6-3, 6-7, 6-1
Mens Doubles: Henry Brooks and Paul Johnson bt Ben Grozier and Luke
Thompson w/o
Mixed Doubles: Dham Ekanayake and Kim Freebairn bt Ashley Balm and Jeanne
Vermaak 3-6, 7-6, 7-6.
