2009 Winter Season Tennis Scores
(winter solstice to spring equinox)

These scores really don't have anything to do with Spectrum's business - they are the scores of friendly matches played between Don and John in an attempt to stay reasonably fit.  The season winner earns a lunch at the local Chinese buffet.

Mar. 18  John  6-4  6-7(7-3)  6-2 Match time: 2:45
John had the power edge in today's windy match, though Don stayed with him for two long sets.  But Don ran out of gas in the third after John got up two early breaks, allowing him to toy with Don while hitting the ball even harder.    (Commentary by Don) 

John 4   Don 2

Mar. 10  Don  6-4  2-6  6-4 Match time: 2:25
Don comes away w/ a much needed win on this beautiful 75 degree pre-spring day. The 1st set was close w/ several brakes of serve, and many deuce games. Don was up 2-1 in the 2nd set before John rolled off 5 games in a row, taking the 2nd set 6-2. The 3rd and deciding set was up for grabs, and both players fought hard w/ there only being one break of serve. Both players were playing well, moving each other around the court. This upcoming spring season should be very close, and highly contested.   (Commentary by John) 

John 4   Don 1

Feb. 21  John  4-6  7-6(7-4)  6-3 Match time: 2:30
Don takes the first set in a breakathon, but John continues to amaze with winners on the full run, not to mention an inordinate number of net cord winners.  Don ran out of energy as John moved him around side to side and in and out...  (Commentary by Don) 

John 3   Don 1

Feb. 17  John  6-2  6-7(7-2)  7-5 Match time: 2:25
John had an easy first set, but things got complicated in the second.  Both players held their first service game, followed by ten straight breaks.  Don ran away with the tiebreaker and had two match points at 5-3, but couldn't close it out as John came up with flat out running winners from all corners of the court.  (Commentary by Don) 

John 2   Don 1

Feb. 9  Don  5-7  6-3  6-1 Match time: 2:30
Don gets on the board w/ a decisive win today. He was up 4-2 in the 1st set, before John stormed back to take the set away from him 7-5. The second set was tough-fought until mid set, when John hit the wall. Don won 5 straight games from 4-3 in the second, and almost achieved the coveted VB of 6 consecutive games, but John thwarted his efforts. Unfortunately for John, there was no more in the tank, and no more power bars in the bag, as Don wins the 3rd set 6-1.     (Commentary by John) 

John 2   Don 0

Jan. 4  John  7-5  2-6  7-6(7-3)  Match time: 3:05
John hangs on to win in a third set tiebreaker.  Don had a two break lead (5-2) in the first set but John saved double set point at 5-3 and again at 5-4, winning 5 straight games to take the set.  Don won the second set easily.  John jumped up 5-0 in the third, but then Don won 5 straight to even it at 5-5.  John saved more than Don for the tiebreaker...     (Commentary by Don)

John 1   Don 0

Dec. 27  John  6-3  6-4  Match time: 2:05
John starts the news season with another win on a windy day.  Both sets were competitive, with long points and multiple deuce games.  Don saved 7 match points (and lost 3 game points) in the last game before John closed the door.    (Commentary by Don)
