Well I am now in Cairo playing the Petrosport Open. It's a pretty big event with a total prize pool of $135,000 USD - significantly more than the 'prestigious' British Open last week ($75,000). The first round was played today and there was only one upset really with Reda defeating Bozza 3-1. I managed to beat Ong Beng Hee 3-1. I played quite well actually. Hitting the ball nicely and surprisingly moving very well!
I'm playing Nick Matthew tomorrow at 12pm in a re-match of the British Open. Hopefully this time my ankle will pull up ok in the morning. Last week in Manchester was pretty embarrassing and I possibly shouldn't have played with my ankle that bad. But I've never retired before or during a match so I thought, 'what the hell, give it a go..'
Looking forward to tomorrow's match for a place in the Quarter finals of a Super Series Platinum event.
