Tennis sizzles at Bunyip

The second Bunyip Ace Classic tennis tournament brought a taste of the pros to town across last weekend as a number of strong competitors brought their best.
Headlined by world number 1275 Corey Gaal, high quality matches were abound with people from all over coming to see the action.
Gaal was ultimately defeated in the final 6-3 6-4 by number three seed Stefan Storch, who took home a prize of $2500 as a result.
Storch was also set to back up his final appearance with a doubles final alongside fellow Australian Adrian Arcon against New Zealander Zachary Adam-Gedge and Aussie Wes Neylon before extreme heat intervened, causing the final to be called off.
Both pairs were awarded a split of the prize money as a result.
The pool of players featured competitors who have competed at some of the highest levels tennis has to offer as well as a number of local players looking to test themselves.
Organisers hope to keep the tournament going as an annual event and continue bringing quality players to the rural area.
