He said: «I think the level was worse than the first one against George, but usually against George it's a pretty good battle. Today I don't think he was playing well from the back but I was serving very well and just utilised an indoor hard court — my favourite surface — and got the job done in the end.

I haven't actually played a tournament in a month, month-and-a-half so to win my first tournament back, there's a lot of good players here so I'm very pleased. «What I'm most pleased with this week is that my serve and forehand were pretty good and my attitude as well.» The Premier League of British tennis, the innovative format is the only season-long competition for the UK's top professionals and brings them together for seven weeks of action to qualify for the UK Pro League Finals Week in November.
