4.5 Tennis - Singapore Rovo & Malaysia LIGAS - Friendly Match - 2X January 2024 - YCK Tennis Centre

2X January 2024 - YCK Tennis Centre (Erwin & Robert H)
Highlights of the game.
Erwin vs. Robert H 4/6 5/3 (Out of time)
I was the one in green shirt and Robert was the one in black shirt
Got to know Robert from the Ligas Malaysia group chat. He came to Singapore for one month for holidays and we linked up via whatsapp. Robert regularly plays in the Ligas Malaysia group and he has been trashing many players (mostly giving them bagels). He is a steady all rounder with very consistent loopy/spinny groundstrokes and he has a decent kick serve. He can grind all day at the baseline and moves well. I was down 1/4 in the first set as I tried to engage Robert in an endless baseline battle which I got outplayed. Then, I changed my tacitcs and came to the net more often and the outcome was more respectable. I had 4 set points while serving at 5/3 in the 2nd set but unable to finish the game as we had to make way for another group that took over the court. Definitely will play with Robert again in the near future, great guy on court and off court !
Brief Summary:
This channel is to record my tennis journey from 2022. I started tennis when I was 8 years old and used to play competitive tennis when I was in primary and secondary school. I represented my state in various junior tournaments. Currently, I am playing mostly casual tennis and some small tournaments occasionally when there is opportunity.
