Men’s Irish OpenThe FBD’s Men’s Irish Open took place during Dublin’s hottest week of sunshine in the Fitzwilliam Lawn Tennis Club last week. Frederik Nielson (DEN) and Edward Corrie (GBR) defeated Ireland’s Peter Bothwell and David O’Hare in the Men’s Double’s final event. Nielson who is a Wimbledon doubles champion from 2012 and held an ATP doubles ranking of 17 in 2013 together with his partner Edward Corrie proved to have all the answers for the Irish pair of Bothwell/O’Hare. Having lost the first set 6-2, the Irish duo managed to exert some pressure in the second set but eventually lost out in straight sets 6-2, 7-5. Ireland’s Sam Barry went out on a scoreline of 6-2, 6-4 in the semi-final to Joshua Milton (GBR), the no 3 seed; Milton went on to win the Men’s singles title. The Irish tennis community got to see some great tennis talent from home and abroad. A big thank you to all the officials, volunteers, Ballkids and supporters who contributed to the weeks success.
