Dr.Ivo def. Mohamed 5-7,6-0,10-4!

Very, very weird match i would say, crazy turnarounds...i thought i played at a solid level, he also played good, but partners made the difference, his partner was too poor at some moments...i had much more net cords, really sorry for that, luck was on my side today without any doubt...we could have played some rallies much better, but all in all it was a solid match...i thought the turning point was in the first game of the 2nd set, thats were it all went my way

1.set...i broke him at 2-1 to lead 4-1 in the start, but i was extremely lucky, i had a bunch of net cords in that period, sorry I got to 5-2 lead and then he started to turn the set around, my level dropped and he started playing better as he broke me to love when i served for the set at 5-3...he held easily for 5-5 and momentum was definitely on his side, everything went his way...i dont say he was lucky, he was just playing all the shots right and i wasnt so he broke me again for 6-5 and didnt look back as he served out the set comfortably, i thought i was going to lose the match at the moment

2.set...crucial first game, really important...i served and he had like 2,3 BP's, but there were at least 7,8 deuces and somehow i managed to sneak through that game...it was huge as the momentum got to my side and i broke him to go up 2-0, i played well...i held for 3-0 and practicly sealed the set when i broke again for 4-0...he played the next 2 games with no interest at all, he missed everything and i won it 6-0, but i knew he is preparing for master TB

3.set...he started it much much better and won the first 2 points to go up 2-0...it was very important for me to get back the minibreak and i did it, my partner played for both of us in that period...then i won my 2 serve points with my partner's good shots and a bit of luck...then, i took both of his serves, i think i had a net cord or something, i was pretty lucky to get those points and lead 5-2...i used it and won 2 serve points to go up 7-2, it was pretty much over at that point, he was really deconcentrated...i kept composure and used my 2nd MP at 9-4 to seal the victory!

Interesting battle, im sure everything would have been different if you won that game at the start of the 2nd Sorry for net cords again, GG and GL!

Ridiculous match, because I play about 2 times better than him Nice net clips and luck. I had less than 10 net clips and he had about 25...Congrats, GG and GL.

Dr.Ivo def. Stajus 1-6,6-3,10-7!

Really one sided match as far as the luck is concerned, it was on my side all the way, i was really too lucky in some moments, really sorry for that...but on the other hand, i didnt play bad, i didnt beat him with just pure luck although he was dominating most of the time and played more concentrated...we had some great rallies, but we can play much better...i had a bunch of net cords, it is true, sorry for that man, no hard feelings, its just an irrelevant game I was in a losing situation with a break down 2 times in the 2nd set, he was in absolute control before i got the 2nd break back...i was missing too much and his partner was way better than mine

1.set...he crushed me there, he broke me to go up 3-1 and never looked back, i didnt have a real chance in that set...my partner was terrible and i wasnt playing good enough so he used it in the best way he could have by taking the set 6-1, absolutely deserved!

2.set...it started in a similar way, i couldnt play the right shots at the right time and he used my every mistake, he was rock solid at that period...when he broke me for 2-1, i got the break back with some lucky points, that got me back into the match...but then, he started playing even better and broke me again for 3-2...there, i thought i was going to lose the match...but i got extremely lucky to get the break back again, i had some net cords and his partner dropped his level...at that moment he dropped his focus a bit as he got nervous because i won a bunch of lucky points...i held for 4-3 and took control with another break of serve for 5-3, i was lucky there, but i also played some points well, it wasnt just luck Fortunately, i managed to serve out the set although he had a break point if i remember correctly...he was a bit pissed off and i had a good chance to win in master TB

3.set...he started better and took control, we both had net cords at the start, but he was stronger in rallies which got him a 5-2 lead with serve...it looked pretty much over at the moment, but i didnt give up and i was fighting for every ball, i took one of the minibreaks back...it was 6-3 for him and it seemed like a huge advantage...but then suddenly everything started to go my way, i played some nice points and had some luck along the way to take 6 points in a row, it was crazy, i have no idea how i did that...there was a crazy point at 8-6 which lasted forever and i was lucky to win it with a winner He saved one MP, but i managed to use the 2nd to get the title!

I was very lucky throughout, but i think you shouldnt be so pissed off about it, take it easy...i didnt do it on purpose, its a tennis game, net cords happen...sorry again, but i dont think i have won only with luck, you can play much better, and when u do it, i dont have a big chance...hope to play much more matches with you but without so many net cords GG and GL! Thanks for congrats guys
