I had to ask Mel about his deep run into the Quarter-finals of the Men's Singles  at Wimbledon 1983. Any player would be well please with this result. So we did a simple deep dive into what made that week work, what he did to his daily preparation routine, even to what he did on his off days. Mel had a great memory and pretty much recalled most of his matches from Rd1 thru the QFs, As a player myself, what a great feeling of accomplishment, I was delighted for Mel! Here's a rundown of his matches through the quarters against Chris Lewis of New Zealand, who advanced to the Championship match against John McEnroe; Rd 1 defeated Tim Wilkison (USA) 62 46 62 61 Rd 2 defeated Stuart Bale (WC) (GBR) 76 64 63 Rd 3 defeated Andres Maurer (DE) 57 63 62 62 Rd 4 defeated Brian Gottfried (USA) 46 63 63 62 QF lost to Chris Lewis (NZ) 76 06 46 67
