We had another fantastic event on the 3rd of March. Twelve players were split into two teams representing two Grand Slams. Each player was partnered with every other player in the same team and played against every player in the other team. We used a ranking factor to provide an even matchup.

Representing the Grass (Wimbledon)

  1. Margaret
  2. Norman
  3. Patrick
  4. Sarah K
  5. Savvas
  6. Zayed

Representing the Clay (Roland Garros)

  2. Martin
  3. Priyendan

A couple of items to note, coach Leonard had to play due to a last-minute withdrawal and while he does love to play he much prefers if those that attend the sessions get the opportunity to play. Secondly, thanks again to Leda Omran, head of principal photography, who captured the essence of our sporting activities. Please take a moment to relive those skilful, playful and well-formed tennis moments. You'll find those moments after the scores.

Now for the results. The clay court specialists took the title in our first Grand Slam event. The scores were as follows.
