Meanwhile, Aidan McHugh continues his fine showing over the last week or so by taking the 2nd set 6-3 against Willbomb. Another match goes to a decider.
Jay shows how quickly he is progressing by overturning last weeks defeat by Grenier, and taking him out 7-5 in the 3rd today. Another terrific win from the young man. So impressive over the last few months.
Jonny O'Mara is having a lot of pain in his hand and was struggling with his grip when serving, hence his retirement. This has been an ongoing problem for a long time and a scan is likely soon. He has withdrawn from next week's tournament at Shrewsbury.
