Togtdyalttai(3) def. Tati Cornet(14) 6-4 6-7(3) 7-5
What a match! This is probably the best he's ever played against me, and I really thought he was going to win at one point.
1st set was weird. It started out with 4 breaks in a row, I was playing horrible, made a lot of errors. Then we had 5 holds in a row, and he was serving to stay in the set. I hit a great pass to get to set point, and I converted it.
2nd set got annoying at the end. I won two games, then he won two games, then we held back and forth until 6-5. Then I couldn't move. He had to quit (I couldn't, it was really weird) and restart from 6-5 for me, his serve. He proceeded to hold (after saving a match point) and then play a great tiebreak to win 7-3.
3rd set was epic, many long rallies.I started out by breaking him, but then he broke right back. Then we held until 5-4 for him. He played great in that game to get to match point, but I saved it and got out of that game. I really thought he was going to win there, but he didn't. Then I broke him after a struggle and served out the match.
I hope to see him play like this in the future! If so, he is a solid top 5 player!
