    If Gad were a bit more agile, he could have gotten away from Jorgensen's flat smashes.

    What a comeback by HTH/TWK. Trailed all the way, 11-17, then 18-20 but stole G2 22-20. Anything left in the tank?

    French SS really not friendly with Ina players

    With so many miscellaneous W/O and withdrawal, now the rest of players are being cursed :(

    Finally Gade officially retires - it was a decent last match. Standing ovation is well deserved.

    That's it. Curtains on Peter Gade's career. The crowd show its appreciation. Gade throws 2 rackets into the crowd. JOJ stands aside and applauds along. On court interview now

    Sigh, uncle Peter lost his last match in France SS. Will this be his last tourney or he's going China & HK?

    Great behavior from JOJ.
    And Peters smile after the match - lovely to see that.
