Bamford won 6-2 7-5


Shows what my attempt to follow the match was like then!!!

I'm certain that Skupski did break during that second set, but Bamford must have already been a break up then... very difficult to follow a match when you can't see 1 side of the court, and whenever the player on the other side comes to the net.

Skupski must have missed a lot of volleys then, as he appeared to be in control of a lot of the points, but clearly didn't end up winning them

Skupski also appeared to have a lot shorter service games than Bamford, but obviously dropped serve to love or something near the end, as that game was only 4 points long

Good win for Bamford though, and good to see him get another point

Josh and Miles on the televised court tomorrow, Bamford on court 2, so you'll be able to see half of his match, while Rushby is on court 1

Josh and Rushby's doubles match should be on court any moment now
