Taylors Closed Badminton Tournament

Today's tournament was a blessing in disguise for me...Partnered Andy and played doubles(because there's only doubles game) for this tournament...

(Note: Only 1 game and 21 points, no deuce)




First round we played off against some dude, was a close match, supposingly we are having the advantage, but sadly we wasted it and made many mistakes, lost out in 19-21..



Then we were sent to the loser pool, where players are given second chance to play...we went up till Quarter Finals and finally we went down to some lecturer partnering an ICT Staff with the score 14-21...


Here's the path all the way to Quarter Finals:

1st round: 21-10

2nd round: 21-7

Quarter Finals: 14-21



At first, we were able to keep up with the momentum and able to take the lead at 11-10, but they managed to catch up till 13-13, where my partner started to get panic and made many mistakes and they caught up till 19-13, and only we managed to scored back a point from them...they went ahead of us and i made a mistake at the last point and then GAME...we lost to them....Was an exciting and close match there...



Wish to be play better, but currently with an elbow injury bugging me, i guess it's no good for me...



Have to start training back already, get back the confidence i used to have...



Finals coming soon, studies first ~ then back to intensive training =)
