Loosing a game.
Loosing a game is a very upsetting thing for me, since I’m a pretty gambling person when it comes to sports.
Today I knocked out in the first round of the main yearly tennis tournament that’s called “Major Cup” by a tough opponent, who definitely was more experienced than me.
The game wasn’t hopeless, I had quite several actively won points and showed my defensive skills, but anyways the opponent was too strong for me.
Since I knew he is more stable in rallies than I am, my game plan was to play actively and attack every time when I see the chance. But after several games I understood that this plan doesn´t give me much benefit. So that I decided to play stable trying to prolong each point as much as I can. It made the game more equal, but didn´t turn the game around.
Now, after my knock out I should break it down and think which elements I need to work on. Even though it´s always dissapointing to lose games, I definitely can take advantage of that looking for a room for improvement.
Thanks!

Losing a game.
Losing a game is a very upsetting thing for me, since I’m a bit of a gambler when it comes to competing in
sports. Today I was knocked out by a tough opponent in the first round of the main yearly tennis
tournament that’s called the “Major Cup.” My opponent was definitely
more experienced than I am. The game wasn’t completely hopeless from the start, in fact I had several actively-won points and showed my defensive skills, but anyways, the opponent was too
strong for me. Since I knew he is more stable in rallies than I am, my game plan
was to play actively and attack every time I saw the chance. But after
several games, I understood that this plan wasn’t that beneficial for me. So
I decided to play steadily, trying to prolong each point as much as I could. It made
the game more equal, but didn´t turn the game around.
Now, after my knock out I realize I
should break it down and think about which elements I still need to work on. Even though
it´s always dissapointing to lose games, I definitely can take advantage of that and continue
looking for more room for improvement. Thanks!
