Results

 

Leonard Hanlon, the 2007 Singles Champion met the 2008 Champion, John Goff, for the second consecutive year.  They both had to fight hard to make the final.  John had beaten Ciaran Dempsey in the semi's while Leonard had to deal with Ciaran's father Ambrose.

 

On a dry but windy afternoon with both Leonard and John playing terrific shots and defending well, the rallies went on for an age.  The writing was on the wall that it was going to be a long match when it took Leonard 20 minutes to claim the first game.  At that rate the contest might have had to be played over two days, like last year when the second leg was played in Skerries.  However the contest soon took a decisive turn and with John just gaining the upper hand winning the next six games to take the first set 6-1.

In the end it took all of 80 minutes of energy sapping end to end tennis to decide the contest.  John eventually emerged the  winner in 2 sets: 6-1, 6-2.   However, the bare result does not reflect the closeness of the contest nor the quality of the play.  Both Leonard and John played superb tennis and used every inch of the court.  The final is a good reflection on the level of tennis being played in the club.   Well done to everyone who took part in the competition. The full result is posted in the men's competition section.
