Youssef Soliman (EGY) bt Youssef Ibrahim (EGY) 11-3, 6-11, 11-3, 11-7 (64m)
Soliman
At the begining of the 3rd, I hit a lob, he hit the tin, I was picking up the ball, I saw that something happened, and apparently, he twisted his ankle at that time.
From that point on, he was limping, then running, then limping, then running again. It was very difficult, very tricky. Youssef, he’s got his shots, on one foot he can hit winners, and put his magic…
So I’m very glad to win this first match of the season, Youssef was very tough first round. I got tense, then I got my emotions out. So now, I feel more ready for my next round against Mustafa. It will be tough, Mustafa is playing well…
