A Family Affair

TennisTitan took his game to Charlotte County this date to play Jeff 'Big Daddy' Briscoe. 'Big Daddy' had taken his daddy's measure in October quite easily (1-6) after a two year layoff from competition. Titan fared similarly today dropping the only set played to completion (3-6) in what was a windswept affair. Both contestants faired poorly on their serves until 'Big Daddy held at 3-4 to win the final three games of the set. TT finally held his serve on his first two opportunities of the truncated second set to establish an early 4-1 lead only to see it dissapated in the final two games played at Franz Kraus Park. The set will be picked up with 'Big Daddy' serving at 4-3 prior to TennisTitan completing his Southern Seniors Tour next week. Titan, coming off a strenuous two setter against 'CC Flash," was relatively satisfied with his level of play but recognizes that it will have to be even better to defeat 'Big Daddy's' game. He's a TALL order at 6'-5" and a HEAVY hitter at 265lbs!
