(AC)
The B Level AC Singles was played on 27 and 28 May as the final event of the Roehampton Summer Tournament. The weather was much kinder than earlier in the week, with no rain, plus fast lawns.
The field had been depleted by late withdrawals, but was nevertheless very competitive. At the end of the first day, 3 or 4 players remained in contention. On day 2 the unbeaten Charlie Martin of Ramsgate continued his fine form by winning both his remaining matches, including victory over the valiant reigning champion (from 2019!) , David Houston from Edinburgh, thus becoming the clear winner. Guy Hewitt of Hurlingham also had 2 good wins on the final day to claim 2nd place outright.
Both Charlie's and Guy's handicaps went down. Congratulations to both of them.
