easy figure follow game happy match misleading plan pressure rally score singles sony successful today tour trying
I was able to follow my game plan today and it worked, ... The score may look like it was an easy match but it's misleading because in every rally I was trying to figure out how to put pressure on her. In the end I was successful and I am so happy to be in my first Tier I Sony Ericsson WTA Tour singles final.
learn lost
I don't want to make excuses. I just lost and I will learn something very important.
coming final happy though
Even though I didn't win, I'm very happy with how I did this week. I didn't feel so comfortable coming in after Miami, but to make it to the final is something that I can be happy about.
