DOYLE stated last night, however, that had Breese insisted upon n‘ he could have forced Mitchell into playing out the match until one had won three sets. Breese's unfamiliarity | with the rules, therefore, may have ©cost him a finalist's role, as not many believed Mitchell could have beaten him in a five-set match Although Breese's defeat deprived the tournament of a less-familiar face in the finals, it set the stage for what may be another battle of the season. Mitchell, it Il be remembered, de- feated Lynch in the semi-final round | of the grand national tournament after } Lynch had him two sets down and match point in the third set.
