Tennis Score: 6-7 (7-2), 2-4 on Clay..

..play called off due to bad light. Playing on clay after a long time (about a week) in blustery conditions, with old tennis balls, meant long rallies with few winners and lots of safe play. All the long rallies has led to fatigue.

In the first set, I was serving for the set twice, at 5-4 and then again at 6-5, which hardly means anything, as serving is, on most days, a disadvantage. A poor tiebreaker was played and the set lost after all the hard work.

The second set started off well with me winning the first game, but then losing the next two. After many long rallies and games it was 2-4 when we finally decided that the light was not good enough and called off play.

Total time played: 1 Hr 30 Mins.
