Sam Cornett Checks In From Mexico City

May 25, 2012

Just finished watching Kylie vs Nayelly, it was a long affair, which is always a plus as I play the winner tomorrow!  Kylie won in five games, they were all close, but she pulled away in the fifth.  The two of them were fired up, and the crowd fed off of that!

I was up first this afternoon and pulled out a 3-0 win against Maria Fernanda, here known as MaFer.  It was great to get off pretty quickly, plus I played some good, consistent squash.  She also donated a bunch of tins to my cause!  Happy with the level of play, but no doubt once I'm tested more, the altitude here in Mexico City will come into play!

Then it was Thaisa vs Diana, and there were some good rallies there, but Thaisa has got a lot more experience than Diana, and it showed in her length and consistency.  Diana is quite quick though, so Thaisa had to win each rally a couple of times!

Next up is Aisling and Karla.

There will be some great matches tonight, and definitely good lineups in the next rounds as well.

Best
Sam
