People, this is the last tournament of this kind (for now). There is no more fun nor enthusiasm in the tour and I feel it is time for changes. We will play tournaments in different style, but more about that later.

Enjoy in this one as much as you can!

Blacky - Krotekus 6-4, 6-3, 6-4

what to say about this match, I expected it to be hard because last time when I played with krotekus it was 7-6, 7-6, but I never expected to be this hard...It was fantastic match with many turnovers, Krotekus played fantastic in first two sets, and on beginning of the third set

lets see what happened

first set

I opened with my serve, and immediately he pressed hard, he had 2 BPs, but I kept my serve, game after on his serve I counter him on the same way I had 4 BPs, but I managed to take one and I had break

Well that wasn't it, at 2-0 on my serve after 30-0 he won four points in a row, and broke me, then he won his serve, I also one mine next serve, and then again some exciting games, first I broke him at 4-2, then he broke me again at 5-3 (0-40), and then I countered him on the same way and I won amazing first set

BPs first set
me 3/7
he 2/4


Second set

Battle continued, he continued to press my serve, at 1-1 he had 15-40, but I saved that and then three games later from my second BP i broke him (4-2), but that wasn't it, till the end of the set he had 4 more BPs, i had one, but we both kept our serve and I won that set

BPs second set

me 1/3
he 0/6


Third set

Third set was pretty calm, we both found a way how to play on our serves, so there was no BPs until 2-2 then with some luck and few nice shots I broke him on my second BP, till the end of the set there was no drama any more, he didn't have idea how to surprise me on my serve, I also had no idea how to surprise him anymore, so set ended 6-4

BPs third set
me 1/2
he 0/0

How different? I was looking forward to grass season too

[Tom Paulman]

Anyway it looks like me and Mario can't find time to play, I can't play later than 7 PM these days (and on weekends) and he can't play earlier

EDIT: I can actually play now or in the next 45 minutes...

[S.Williamz]

I was looking forward to grass season as well...

[Mario]

Mario def Tom Paulman - 6:3 6:4 6:4

[Tom Paulman]

Mario def. Tom Paulman 6-3 6-4 6-4

Very entertaining match, I enjoyed it although I lost The only thing that was getting on my nerves was that weird lob that he was using quite often, it could be hardly returned and forced me to make many errors...

Stuey,
Chiller and I, we are reporting a huuuuuuuuuuuge problem...
we cant play our match at all. i mean the lag is so huge that we cant literally move on the court. we have tried on thursday and today even using hamachi but it is mission impossible. the lag is like between 1500 and 3500 at times. after struggling in the first 3 games which lasted 'only' 20 minutes we decided to finish the set serving only aces so that it is quicker.... and it took us 50 minutes to play that single set
what should we do in this situation?
