I don't know how you can say that Mandy probably played reasonably well in defeat when only winning 3 games. Given that Mandy was the number 3 seed and it was the Spaniard's girl easiest match on the way to the final suggests to me that it was anything other than a reasonable performance.

Wow  confuse.gif

I think it has become clear to us that Gabrine is a real up and coming talent to the extent that her win against Mandy was in retrospect I suggest no great surprise.  Indeed Mandy winning would probably have been the surprise.

I must admit though I was a bit surprised at the  "Amanda probably played reasonably well" comment but said nothing at the time.  Phlwrig just quite mildly did query it with some evidence.

To clarify I wasn't offended by his comment, he was more than likely correct as the scoreline was very one sided and as he pointed out the easiest win for the Spaniard, I guess I should have placed a smile at the end of the sentence to ensure my tone wasn't misunderstood (similarly read this post as unoffended and non-hostile). When I made the 'Amanda probably played reasonably well' comment, I had forgotten the scoreline and had thought it was more along the lines of 4 & 3... I now politely wish for a line to be drawn under this smile
