Dutch Open 2009,Tough Second Round

Tonights second round against Anup Sridhar a.k.a Shredder (India) was dificult. I have played him 3 times this year and everytime he really punishes me. However tonight I was definitely in the match. In the first set I was up 20-19 before losing it 22-20. In the second it was tight up to 11-13 and then I made a few too many easy mistakes and let him get away. I think the biggest difference between tonights match and the others was the fact that I was able to get him to the back line much better which opened the court for me. I was then able to get the attack a bit more and win points. I have to keep this good play for next week in Mexico where I will be playing the Pan American Championships.
Until then I will do some training but also relax and recover.
