My Warwick Misery and My 1st Excursion

OK guys,I've just got back from Warwick after a long 2 hour drive that made my butt flat,and yeah,I went out in the 2nd round to the 4th seed of the tournament.I played sooo bad but yeah,good thinds come with sacrifices.

In the 1st round,I had to face a lefty,and I forgot to mention that I HAVE NOT BEATEN A LEFTY BEFORE.And to make things worse,I'm playing on grasscourts,which I would say is a surface I detest.So lefty+grasscourts=My tennis horror movie

But yeah,I pulled through in straight sets to win my first tourney singles match in Oz and meet up against the 4th seed.Gee,I only had a 2 our rest,so I grabbed a quick bite of Sandwich ,shower and go out again.And boy oh boy,did I played miserably.I went down in straights,but yeah,there were some thing I am happy with,just not the right ones,but the odd ones XD

My stats throughout my 2 matches were:
1)HALF OF MY CURRENT CAREER ACES(Around 7 of em)
Yes,yes,I know this is nothing to boast about,but it was pretty odd I served up that much aces.Really,I was surprised myself.I mean,I couldn't help but smile at myself at em,especially during my loss.My 1st serve pulled through really well at that time.It went BOOM!the point was over or I would win it within the next 3 shots.My 1st serve percentage was kinda average 60%(above my usual average of below 40 ),but points won,man....I've not serve that good for my 1st serve since I started tennis(IN other words,my best 1st serve performance so far).I had tons of blasters,but what a better way to compliment it with good 2nd serves?Guess what,OVER 20 double faults.....

Yep,my 1st serve was a bit Sampras-like alright(of course,not totally Sampras,I'm just exaggerating),and if my 1st serve destroys my opponent,my 2nd serve destroys me.Only about 20% of the time did my 2nd serve went in during my second round match.This means that I'm having a vice versa day...

2)My groundstrokes

I totally screwed up in this one.About 20 winners and slightly more unforced errors.My backhand was mainly the fault while my forehand was the point winner.But yeah,bad days...

3)My style of play
Four words:I HATE GRASS COURTS!!!I would go for attacking shots normally and I continued to do so.However I'm supposed to do hook shots,which is creating short angled balls instead of smacking em....Too bad....

Anyways I don't have much to say except I'm having a S.O.R(E!!) test tomorrow on graduation and baptism so yeahh....

WAIT,WAIT,WAIT!!My excursion on Bilogy IS ON!!WOOHOO!!I'm gonna get some pictures!!Maybe I'll post em here so you guys can see my face alright??!!Hehe don't even think of me as handsome,but don't put me on the ugliest list either XD.See ya!!
