Amateur Rackets Singles Championship 2014
Tom Billings started the stronger, establishing a healthy lead in the first game. Alex Titchener-Barrett fought back but too late to save the game and give Billings the advantage. However, ATB reversed his fortunes in the second game, with Billings always playing catch up, allowing ATB to level the match one-game all. ATB carried the momentum into the third game dropping only two points, before taking an early advantage in the fourth (and final) game. With Billings on the back foot, it was ATB who stayed clear of his opponent the take the game and the Championship. It was ATB's seventh successive Amateur Singles title, matching the achievement of James Male in the 1990s and HK Foster in the 1890s - nobody has ever won the event for eight years running.
