Oli hasnt won an M25 title before, all his titles are M15. Jubby has only actually won 3 at M25 level.

Could be a cracking final

Paul has to properly turn up because I think Oli will.

Oli 4/9 favourite, Paul 13/8. About what I would have expected.

And in which case Paul should really be expecting nothing less than a final if he is anything like on form. Which he isnt.

Theyve been playing 100 minutes now and played 13 games - so that is nearly 8 mins per game on average - this seems like a real battle of attrition.

Jubby showing well though and a set up.

Anyone putting money on Jubby will be looking smart right now. Real battle and he has the edge

And Paul seems on top now, 4-2 in second set as they approach 2 hours.

Be really pleased for Paul if he sees this one through

5-5 in the second set.

I put a sneaky wee bet on Oli at 9/1 against when he was 4-6 *2-5 15-0 down

While a bit close to the wire, it was just one break and he's got it back.

Oli breaks again for *6-5

And hes broken to serve for the set now at 6-5. That may prove inspirational !

And Oli has really motored away and looks likely he will get home and dry - 4-0 final set.

Drinks on Indy tonight, meet him in the Conan Doyle!
