Toby has started like a train and run away with the first set.

SF: Toby Martin WR 1241 defeated (3) Peter Nagy (HUN) WR 603 by 1 & 4

Noisy bugger, Nagy. Never watched a Futures match before. Interesting to see the players having to retrieve the balls by themselves.

Final: Connor Farren (USA) WR 916 (CH = 823 in July last year) vs Toby Martin WR 1241

Absolutely delighted for Toby. He has had a strong couple of weeks. Hope he can go on and take the title. If memory serves, he has made one final before where he lost having had match point so hopefully he can go one point better this time.

I have seen Connor Farren play (Faro two years ago). He was no world beater then but of course two years is a long time.

Yes, really good to see.

And a very nice double to have Alice Gillan in the women's final here.
