George is two games to zero up in this best of five
Just a quick Note on Felix and EJ
There are very few players in the world at the moment that could compete with how well Felix just played.
His hit rate is extraordinarily high.
EJ may have gone down 5-7 5-7 4-7 but that score line represents a very good performance faced with such relentless hitting. well done EJ!
And good luck to all us over 40s in the main draw.
