At 11 o'clock yesterday morning the matches in the tournament were commenced at the Association Grounds, Moore Park. The attendance was much larger than on either day last week. Possibly this was owing to the ladies' matches proving a great attraction to most of the spectators. The day was very favourable for lawn tennis, there being little or no wind, but the presence of a band of music would have much enhanced the day's sport. The results are as follows:

GENTLEMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP.-First Round: The matches between Messrs. Highett and Fraser and Messrs. Moore and Clive Smith were of a very close and exciting nature. Mr. Rolin satisfactorily accounted for the New Zealander.
Mr. Ismay very easily defeated Mr. Whyte, and Mr. Fitzgerald rather unexpectedly easily beat Mr. Cropper. Second Round: Mr. Rolin beat Mr. Highett after a tough match, and Mr. Salmon defeated Mr. Fitzgerald, after playing every game it was possible to play, which shows the game was very
stubbornly contested. Mr. Riddell defeated Mr. Ismay both sets, at six games to three, Mr. Ismay's play being distinctly inferior to that shown by him
when playing Mr. Whyte.

LADIES' CHAMPIONSHIP.-Miss Rodd beat Miss Lee, two sets to one, and only needs to play a little more steadily to develop into a very good player.
Miss Lamb's volleying and placing was quite too much for her opponent. Miss Gordon had a hard contest with Mrs. Murray, and Miss Fitzgerald found she had no mean opponent in Miss Scarvell.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN'S CHALLENGE PAIRS.-Mr. Cropper and Miss Lamb found doughty opponents in Mr. Ismay and Miss Scarvell; Mr. Coldham and Miss Cox beat Mr. Riddell and Miss Bloxsome, after some close and exciting play; Mr. Salmon and Mrs. Want beat Mr. Martin and Mrs. Murray by two sets to one, after losing a love set to commence with.

GENTLEMEN'S DOUBLE CHAMPIONSHIP.-Messrs. Allen and Allen created a surprise by wiping out Messrs. Cropper and Fitzgerald by two sets to one.

To-day, a round of the gentlemen's singles will be played at 11 o'clock, a round of the ladies' singles at 12 o'clock, a round of the ladies' and
gentlemen's challenge pairs at 2 o'clock, and a round of the gentlemen's doubles at 3 o'clock. The scratch pairs and the veterans' match will also
commence at half-past 2. The Honorable James White has kindly presented a five guinea prize, which will be contested for by the veterans.
