The 13-year-old made the ideal start, defeating Brodie 6-4, 6-3 in his opening match whilst playing in dry 30-degree heat. After a two-hour gap, Rowan returned to the court for his second group match against Rares as temperatures continued to rise. It meant Rowan had to defeat Andreas in his final group match to keep his hopes of reaching the knockout stage alive. Andreas used the court well to move Rowan from side to side while Rowan continued to fight for every point. He has represented Cumbria at Under-11, Under-12 and Under-14 level and has won 11 tournaments in fewer than three years.
