Clear your diary’s and ensure you are there or on-line to watch what will be a nail biting last day’s play

3rd day is going to be riveting

3rd day – it was riveting – nail biting and high drama plus the band width breaking down and so streaming cutting out some of the time.  It is not for me to comment on the play other than to give you the scores with Lumley winning all 4 sets to take him through to the Challenge in September.

6/4, 6/5, 6/2 6/1

Final set scores were: 6/1, 6/5, 6/0, 3/6, 2/6, 4/6, 5/6, 3/6, 6/4, 6/5, 6/2 6/1
