Better player won

For me, it probably was one tournament too many. That is always the danger a professional faces, not judging the exact amount of reserves in one8217;s body. I know that I8217;ve been saying I always play better towards the the year-end, as by then I am in full control of my game, but this time I must admit that even I was caught unawares.

I was feeling perfectly fine before my final match and never expected to lose dueto fatigue and tiredness. In fact, before this, those words have never been association with my game. I should have caught a hint during my match against England8217;s Paul Johnson, where I was feeling tired during the game, But I just shrugged the feeling off and said, 8220;Its just one of those days.8221;I was struggling all through the match. I did manage to win the first game, but that was after being down 1-6 and then 9-12 down. It was a tough game, which I was determined to win and though I managed to, it took a lot out of me.

I got more tired than I though I would and Jonathan sensed it. He played very well, in fact, raised the level of his game and made it tough for me.
