Played Well

Phil played great today.  He was focused and sharp. He knew he was in for a fight so he hunkered down and took care of business.

He ran through the first set 6-0. The guy didn’t have a chance. In the second set, Phil continued to play well, but his opponent started missing less and got really hot for about 2 crucial games. Phil lost the second set 6-4.

For the third set Phil came out strong and was up 4-0 before the guy knew what hit him. The opponent held, then broke Phil to make the score 4-2. Phil was able to quickly finish off the last two games to win the third set 6-2. 

This club has 7 indoor courts, all laid out in a row. Phil was on the third court down so watching was a little tough.

Tomorrow Phil has singles at 10:30 then doubles at 1:30.  I was able to warm up Phil before his match, then I hit on the outdoor clay for a 1/2 hour to get a little more exercise in. 

I love hanging out with these guys!
