Final Showdown with Jenny Duncalf
Posted on 07. Jun, 2009 by Nicol David in Nicol David, Seoul Open 2009, The Stars, Tournaments
It was a cool evening today on the glass court but both Jenny and I are fired up to get it going in this final.
The ball was dying at the back corners a lot more today from my drives that came in well in the first game. Jenny did the same thing in the second game and was attacking from the back too. She didn’t make any errors and went right through that game on a high.
Now it was up to one of us to take that control off each other. Some nice winners from Jenny and a couple of retrieving shots from me that made the rallies harder each time. I stepped up a little bit to get by and also continued that sort of game in the fourth.
In the middle of the fourth game, I had better control on the ball than the last two games that gave me a string of points with some errors coming from Jenny. I won the match from Jenny’s forehand drop in the tin to take the Seoul Open title.
Such a fantastic venue with an enthusiastic bunch of supporters cheering us on throughout the week. Now for some kim chi soup for the grand finale…
