2nd set
Richard broken 2-3* hmm

Stircrazy · Tennis legend

I assume he's been broken again & that Michalicka will be serving for the second set: 2-5* (?). cry

Broken again 2-5*

mjd · Challenger qualifying

Oh dear 2-6 and into 3rd set!

Stircrazy · Tennis legend

Yep. Michalicka takes the second set by 6-2 to level the match. cry

3rd set
Not a good start 0-1*

Stircrazy · Tennis legend

Looking like curtains: *0-3. cry

mjd · Challenger qualifying

Something gone horribly wrong here 0-5*

Bloomers loses the last 11 games of the match, so Michalicka has beaten all three highest-ranked Brits here to win the title. A bizarre end to a very good week for Richard, I hope it doesn't mean he got injured.

Edit: Still a good week overall and hopefully something to build on.

I know what you mean, but I think Bloomers has had enough injuries in the last few years to last him a lifetime.
