Phillips, playing in the final, took on the tournament’s number three seed, and they battled in a marathon three set battle. Phillips won the first set 4-2, but fell in the second set by the same score. He then dug deep to win the third and final set 10-8.
Following the victory, Phillips said, “Thank you to Sam Maybury for being my life coach and foundation. I prepared himself with the school of thought that Sam has taught me over the years.
“I want to also salute the South West London team for all of the hours and energy the team has put in over the past month. A special thanks to Jordan Correia, who warmed up with me for his match today and sat on the side with brother and mom holding the Bermuda flag.”
