John 11 - Don 2
Sept. 18 John 6-1 3-6 6-2
Match time:
2:35
 |
| John comes out of the gate strong going Hawaiian (5-0) before Don gets on the board to prevent the bagel. Second set is all Don, as John blinked, and Don got on a roll wining 6-3. Third set was up for grabs, but John’s aggressiveness at net, and taking big swings [teeing off] at Don’s second serve earns him another hula dancer, going up 5-0. Don made an effort at a comeback, saving match points, but John finally iced the cake at 6-2. There’s a chill in the air indicating the summer season is coming to a close. The buffet is in the bag for John, since he’s sitting on a fat cushion…. Commentary by John |

Match time:

| Don weathers the first set storm to bagel in the second, starting his comeback as cheerleaders practiced to the Rocky theme on a neighboring court. John won the first three the games in the third, but Don found another level to take the next six for a vb. The 3-3 game went to 11 deuces, and several other games went at least 6 deuces amidst many excellent points. |

Sept. 12 John 7-5 6-3
Match time:
2:00
|
| Don starts out strong, and jumps out to a 5-3 lead in the 1st set, but John comes back wining the next 7 games in a row. Both players were hitting well, and having US Open visions, as they went for passing shots, and played w/ aggression. Don’s serving showed improvement, and John’s lobs were finding the baseline when Don tried to put net pressure on in the 2nd. Commentary by John |
John 9 - Don 1

Match time:
1:45

| Don did well to stay in the first set and even had a set point in the tiebreaker, but John is hard to stop if he wins the first set and starts to swing free and easy with his flexpoint seemingly self aiming racquet... |
John 3 - Don 0
| July 2 John 2-6 6-4 7-5 Match time: 2:45 |
| Don looked sharp in the opening set but the fat-i-gue factor combined with the mental strain of trying to get John to start points in the correct court allowed the Dixie Syndrome to creep into Don's game late in the third set. |
John 2 - Don 0
|
June 26 John 6-4 4-6 7-5 Match time: 3:05 |
| John comes away w/ a win on this hot morning match. Don was up 5-3 in the 3rd set, and had 2 match points at 5-4. John was fat-a-qued [fatigued], and not moving very well in the 3rd, as both players ran out of liquids to replenish themselves. But after saving match points, John went to the well, dug up some extra energy, and focused on a distant light, winning the 3rd 7-5. Luckily for John, Don suffered from the Dixie Syndrome @ the same time [look-away, look-away] [commentary by John] |
