On My Way Back Home

Hi, I am writing after my loss yesterday so I will make it short. I start serving and the first game was a bit strange. not so good timing on my serve, it took me a while until i won my game, it was almost 10min. After this I played some good tennis thru all the first set, I could control the points and the score too-:) 6-3 up!!
second set was similar situation, still my tennis was there, I took some good decisions and mixed my game very smart. I was leading 3-1 up and there I had 2 break points, I didn’t make one, I didn’t play them as aggressive as I should and did before. I lost this game and in 3-2 I got the break back. she was playing her tennis, she was going for more, she was serving better too. she was putting a lot of pressure from the first ball and this made me not to play my game anymore…third set she played better tennis and that’s all what I can say!
credit and respect towards her! she is a tough, top player! I am hitting back to Europe, it was a long trip. unfortunately I will need to pull out of Copenhagen as I don’t wanna risk any injuries. I have been playing a lot the last weeks and this change from clay court to hard court in 2 days, just for one week…doesn’t make sense.
I feel very good with my body and tennis and I am looking forward for the clay court season!! next tournament will be in Fes!! until then?? few days off and back on track with some tennis and fitness too!! take care guys, your Eleni
