Chan Sin Yuk (HKG) 3-0 Nour Heikal (EGY) 13-11, 11-6, 11-5 (27m)
Very fast pace, hard hitting, extremely fair match, hardly any calls… Both young, 22 for Simmie, and 23 for Nour… The win went according to ranking, 32 for Simmie and 42 for Nour…
Simmie : I think I got in control of the match in the second and third, but I lost a bit of focus when I had a big lead.
She is an attacking player, so once I give her opportunities in the middle, she attacks and she is always very confident with her attacking game. So I’m glad I found my focus back toward the end of each game.
I need to keep focusing on what I’m trying to do instead of just trying to win.
I’m playing Farida Mohamed the day after tomorrow. We studied in the same US College, Columbia, so we trained a lot together. But we haven’t played for three years now. So I’m looking forward to play her again….
