Paddon won all nine singles games against Garry Barnes, David McGarragh and Glenn Barcham in Cavaliers' 6–4 win. There was still detail behind the straight-games record: Barnes took a game to 12–10 and McGarragh to 15–13. Three clean singles wins supplied half of the team's points in a closely divided fixture.
