Another Sunday, another masterclass from our top qualifiers! The fight for a spot in the **Grand Final on June 8th** is getting tougher, but some players just aren’t letting anyone else through the gates!
🏆 **Michelle Pipkin, Vera Gair & Dean Swift** – Already qualified but clearly on a mission to make sure no one else joins them too easily! With a ruthless display of consistency, they kept their competition at bay, denying others the chance to sneak in. Someone give them a referee’s badge because they’re policing the qualifiers like pros!
🎾 Rob Butler** – Bar having a blip in the second round would have made the top three easily, maybe next time he will elbow his way into the exclusive club and be welcomed to the big league.
🔥 **The Fight Continues!** 🔥
The clock is ticking, but there are plenty of spots up for grabs for the Grand Final if only you can beat the already qualified. Will someone break the Michelle-Vera-Dean stronghold next week? Or will they continue their reign of tennis terror, keeping everyone else out?
Only one way to find out—**see you on court this Sunday!** Let me know by close of play Thursday if you want to join in the fun this week.
