Two second rounds in Warsaw
Results from the Polish International Challenge...
In Poland I played two matches in men´s singles - in the 1st round I won against Vitaliy Konov from the Ukraine in 3 games (16:21, 21:18, 21:14). In the 2nd round I lost against Blagovest Kissyov from Bulgaria in 3 games, too (22:20, 9:21, 16:21).
The first match was a repayment for the Hungarian International Series 2008, where I lost to the Ukrainian opponent, however in the second match I didn´t manage to return the defeat to Kissyov from only last week´s Romanian International.
I was not very happy with my game and rather upset from not grabbing a good chance to get between the last 16 players of the tournament, but still I played better than in Romania last week, which is not bad...
After a long time I played men´s doubles at an international event. Together with Jiri Provaznik we won the first round against Jesper von Hertzen and Eetu Heino from Finland. In the second round we lost against Georgiy Natarov and Valeriy Atrashchenkov from the Ukraine 18:21 and 14:21.
The next tournament I will play is the Finnish International Challenge in Vantaa next week.
