2015 Xmas Finalists: Rich, Karen, Richard, Hugh, Robin, Guy
The 6 Group Winners in this year’s draw of 18 players were required to play a total of six hours of tennis to determine who would be crowned 2015 Champion. Excellent performances in their Singles matches by Robert Doe and Jim Ludekens were not enough to get them through to the finals, as doubles results also play an important part in this popular event.

The Finalists; Karen, Guy Kirk (scoring maximum points in the group stage), Robin Faux, Rich Wainwright, Hugh Markus and Richard Dunn (replacing Rupert Grose) were provided with much needed sustenance by Linda’s cakes and Rich’s biscuits. Robin (Grad Cup Champ) and Guy led after the singles, winning both their matches, but again it was the “complete player”, Rich Wainwright, producing excellent doubles performances too (ably partnered by Karen), who came though.
The Pros were thanked by the players for their contribution to another fun event at CURTC.
