Malaysia for the first time of my life…

Practice, kids clinic, work out at the gym and in the end a relaxing evening with players party tonight!! I have been here for a few days now and it’s not bad at all the place. the only thing what makes you tired is the weather. it’s very humid every single day, even more than in Pattaya. of course every time I am done with the practice i am straight at the shower, u are not even able to stretch, just too wet. I like very much the speed of the courts, just the balls are flying a bit. so of course I will string the guns a bit tighter. I am not playing doubles this week, because of the conditions, the energy, the late schedules and of course because of Indian Wells (I am playing qualis over there and the trip is very long). First round in singles vs Sania Mirza. she is one of my friends and it is a bit tough the situation but I think both we can handle it as we are very professional, we never had problems on court and I am sure this time will be the same. she is a great player too, with a lot of experience on tour. it will be tuesday and the time is not out yet. one more day today with a practice session and a short massage!! have a great week, wish you all the best, Eleni
