FTSV Jahn Brinkum: Clear defeat at the start of the season in the north league!

A debacle for men 40 of the FTSV Jahn Brinkum! At the start of the season in the tennis north league, they suffered a devastating 0: 6 defeat against the TTK Sachsenwald. Captain Thorben Gruner left no doubt that the opponents were clearly superior: "In the end, this was also deserved in height because the opponents were stronger." A hard blow for the Brinkumer who had hoped for more.

In the top singles, Tobias Killer was not even able to keep up against Ulrich Tippedhauer and lost 0: 6, 2: 6. Gruner himself had to give up, and the two players agreed: "We simply did not find any weapons that we could have endangered with our opponents." The other matches were also anything but gratifying. Björn Linke fought bravely, but could not score against a strong serve and lost 4: 6, 4: 6. Jan-Dirk Wittrock already had a 5-2 lead in the first set, but he also failed and finally had to give up 6: 7, 1: 6.

The double games: no chance!

The double games brought no turn. Killer and Wittrock had to give up quickly in the first doubles, while Gruner and Christian Schult played better in the second doubles, but were still inferior. Gruner commented on the situation: "We played well here. Nevertheless, our opponents were superior." A sobering start for FTSV Jahn Brinkum, who presents the team with great challenges. The next encounter will be crucial to get out of this low point!
