Anton won pretty comfortably 1 & 3. I think this is his last year at LSE. Be interesting to see if he goes full-time after his finals in June.

Anton versus Aidan is an interesting final. Will keep an eye on that one.

IMO they should consider shaking this League up a little; with 11 qualies events, it is quite long. Maybe they should have 5 events and a Summer Finals Week and then 5 more and a Winter Finals week to break it up and give it a climax; the 12 player event works well still though, on the whole.

For the finals weeks though, maybe the 5 weekly winners qualify and then the league leaders to make a field of 8. Not sure, but feel it could do with a little more on it

Three retirements in the three women's play-off matches so far - Eden (v Dani for 3rd/4th), Jessica (v Jizel for 7/8) and Summer (v Talia for 9/12)

I had in my mind it was UCL, I think from Wimbledon qualies commentary but the UK Pro League Bio of him said LSE...either way, I'm still a fan and I think he has big potential, I really hope he gives it a proper go after exams.

Congrats to Katie Stresnakova on taking the women's title

Did someone say a little whil back that Katie and Liam Broady were/are an item ? Am I making that up?
