Get in, Ghed-in !!! No, that's wrong . . . now where does that leave me . . .

Really well fought Richard, took the stuffing out of him by coming back to win that second set.

PS and great reverse psychology from Korriban ! Worked a treat . . :)

Just been out for 3 hours and returned to see this result! biggrin Wow!!

Not sure how it happened, but frankly, who cares!?

Well done Richard, now for a bit of revenge in the final, but if you could start better than in your last 2 matches please.

 Richard did beat him here earlier in the year though. Both matches went to 3 sets. Excellent win today

Great comeback by Richatd.

Seem to have been plenty of these generaly from Brits this year ( probably not significantly more or less than other nations ). But it will just take a setback or two for someone to come out the woodwork and suggest that Brits are in some way intrinsically lacking competitively.

Ghedin gets his revenge for his singles defeat, though no doubt Richard will be content with the way things worked out:

Final:  (1) Riccardo Ghedin & Claudio Grassi (ITA/ITA) CR 392 defeated Richard Gabb & Tobias Simon (GER) UNR by 3 & 5

They are winning game in pairs in the Final at the moment - Richard the first two, Angelinos the next two, Richard the next two ... which means he leads *4-2

Yes. Interesting too to do the top 10 week 42 2013 versus top 10 week 42 2012 comparison.

Only Andy, James W and Dan E were in both top tens. The other 7 are all new.

 Is there a link to the comparison?

Cheers

The quickest way to compare year-on-year is probably to go to the GB top 25 table http://bit.ly/12QmVR3 to get the current list and then click the "52 weeks ago" link near the top left to get the one from a year earlier.
