Was sitting here gobsmacked at the Baker loss in Jersey so it was nice to get back onto this thread and find that Boggo made no mistake.

On the subject of results in Jersey....check out the thread for the womens 10K. An amazing rd2 result there, which is undoubtedly the best performance by a British player so far this year

So we've got a 3rd set....who do we think will win it ?

Dlouhy has the momentum at the moment, Alex's needs some big first serves and to start this 3rd set well, can't afford any concentration lapses

not good. hopefully Alex can come back out with all guns blazing and take the set, do you think it was a case of nerves being soo close to his first masters series?

Doubt it, think it's more a case of taking his foot off the gas and letting Dlouhy back in in

Bit worrying...Alex 15-30 down on serve here, 1st game of the 3rd

Boggo opens 3rd set

15-0
15-15
15-30
15-40...
broken.. dlouhy leads 1-0

wonder if alex is injured or something!!?? his serve has totally deserted him

scoobsuk · Club Coach

Seen this happen a million times - player gets the first set, has chances to break early in the second but fails to take them, and suddenly they're a bit deflated and their opponent is feeling confident and starts to play much better. Now Dlouhy has the bit between his teeth and it's going to take some exceptional guts from Boggo to get it back.

Oh lor. I don't know about taking his foot off the gas, at the moment he seems to have run out of gas and can't find a service station.

Come on, Alex, you can do better than this! Concentrate!

Sheddie · administrator

Dlouhy breaks to 15, 6 games in a row, is Alex injured ? I know it's outdoor hard but still really strange. Hardly winning any points in the baseline rallies now, Dlouhy's now winning the majority on his and Alex's 2nd serve
