Platform Tennis League - Week 21 Recap

Flight One: Standings Tighten With Just 4 Weeks to Play

Several tight races developed as 15 flight one sets were contested. Scott Triplett maintained his #4 spot (players with a chance to qualify), but is now just 0.42% ahead of Michael Todd after a 4-3 evening. Patrick Shiels went 2-1 and is in sixth, but is less than two percentage points from fourth at 66.67%. Doug Jones inched 0.77% ahead of Rob Bakker for the top spot with a 7-0 night.
