Abingdon's first pair of Kate Collinson and Jenny Tattersall proved the difference between the teams as they edged to a 5-4 victory over Cholsey in Ladies Division 1 of the the 3-Pair Wilson Inter-Club League.

Collinson and Tattersall, a class above their opponents, were forced to fight back from a set behind to beat Lizzie Vernon and Tracey Hipkin in the final round to ensure their 100 per cent record.

The Abingdon duo had recorded straight-set victories over Heather Harrison and Nicki Brown, as well as Anne Stanley and Charlotte Turner.

Emma Lawrence-Jones and Lucy Morgan chipped in with a valuable 1.5 at second pair, while the bottom pair of Nicky Torgersen and Taryn Poultney picked up what proved to be a crucial half against Stanley and Turner.
