The Rossmoor Men's Team showcased their prowess at Roundhill Country Club on May 8, securing a victorious outcome in their recent matches. The picturesque setting of RHCC, coupled with recently resurfaced courts, provided an ideal backdrop for the competition. 

Competition went as follows:

  • Line #1, Chris Slee and Captain Bernie Wolf clinched victory in a thrilling third-set tiebreaker, 6/2, 4/6, 10/8. This match was the longest and took resilience and determination. 
  • Line #2, represented by co-captain Stuart Coffey and Barry Brian, staged a remarkable comeback in the second set after trailing 2/5, ultimately winning in straight sets of 6/0 and 7/5.
  • Line #3, Al Peters and David Besenfelder secured a solid win with scores of 6/3 and 6/3, showcasing their skill and coordination on the court.
  • Line #4, Richard Schulman and Tim Walker faced a strong team and lost in two sets with scores of 4/6 and 1/6.
  • Line #5, the Dave and Dave team of Dave Kern and David Hickeyclaimed victory by default when their opponents retired due to illness while tied at 5/5 in the first set.

The Round Hill team was most gracious as always and offered post-match beverages and camaraderie.  The deck for this has a beautiful vantage point overseeing the courts.

With this triumph under their belt, the Men's Team from Rossmoor eagerly anticipates hosting  Round Hill in a future match at Rossmoor.
