Boyd Massie vs Tom Townsend

Details

Tough match against my doubles partner.   Boyd and I are both working back from long layoffs from tennis, I was a bit more consistent in big points, and was moving well which helped.     First set was either way, I ended it with a lunge end of racquet (not McEnroeish) volley.  2nd set was also a battle, as we had at least 3 LONG games with multiple deuces, but my ability to mix in enough offense, a few solid serves,  and kept it in was the difference in the one hour and 45 minute grind.    Don’t sleep on Boyd! His game has solid offense, and takes some time to get back to mid season form.  Good match!
