What a start!

Matchday #1 featured 16 competitors split into 4 teams for two matchups. These were:

Team A: Huan, Yichau, Kevin, Gary
Team B: Lawrence, Ken, Ron, Kwong

Result: Lawrence, Ken, Ron, Kwong (7) def. Huan, Yichau, Kevin, Gary (3)

Team B were able to establish a strong lead from the start. Despite a comeback bid by Team A, that wasn't enough as Team B won the crucial doubles match, clinching the victory. It would have been a tie had Team B won the doubles matchup.
Note: One of the singles matches did not go ahead as schedule, but that did not make a difference in the end.

Team D: Romeo, Ha, Shuai, Carrie

Result: Romeo, Ha, Shuai, Carrie (7) def. Lev, Jason, Almaz, John (4)
