We played 76 games all in one day. We lost in the finals of the 4th Flight. We lost all but one match and that is how we got into the finals.
We started playing at 8:30 that morning and finished at 5:00 that evening. It was a long day and I loved every minute of it.
The tournament always has a lot of really good players in it. Even in my younger years, I've only ever won in the 3rd Flight. Once or twice we were in the 2nd Flight but got knocked out. So I think after not playing tennis for so long, we were lucky to have been in the last Flight Finals.
There is usually a good amount of food being served to keep our strength up and for those that can play and drink........there is BEER!!
I'm sure he was happy to go back to DC so he could take a rest!
Me taking a break. You see I'm only drinking water!
Afterward there is always a beer or two consumed to celebrate the end of a glorious tennis day!
The Finalist of the 4th Flight. That's me, the Engineer and our opponents who kicked our asses.
The Champions of the Tournament won the Turkeys.
They finished just after 6 pm.
