Unfortunately the GB Vets team
had been reduced somewhat by injuries and Covid but that
didn’t stop all having a most enjoyable evening as
Roehampton had 8 players including doubles specialists.
So from the start any attempt at a formal match was
dropped and we just mixed and matched for the next two
and a half hours. A few observations :
GB Vets outclassed in the
doubles. Ash Chakraborty played three
doubles matches and one singles.
Mick Murray
played one doubles and two singles managing to win one
of the singles.
Star man David Parker
played three doubles and two singles matches finally
getting a 3/2 win in the singles at close to 9pm. All
this after 18 holes of golf in the afternoon!
Everyone had a good workout but
overall I think we have to concede a victory to
Roehampton.
Great hospitality afterwards.
Some of the Roehampton guys couldn't stop for the meal
but most of us captured in attached photo with Ash,
myself and David centre stage.
