Well I have now been in Turkey for 3 days. My flight went well, there were 15 of us traveling on the same flight so it was alot of fun. We arrived at the Resort at about 2:30 and immediately went for a practice session. We rested the rest of the day and had our first meal at the greatest food venue ever. You can find any type of food imaginable!!! Asia, Tukish, American, Italian!!! alot to choose from!! I always gain weight when I come here. The desserts are unbelievable!! Today we play Australia in our first round match. It will be a tough first round. I will be up first, playing singles in the number 2 position. I am at the gym stretching and warming up getting ready to take the Aussie!! She is going DOWN!!! After my match our no. 1 will play their no. 1 and doubles will follow. I will come back later to update everyone on the final results of our first match!!!!
Well I played well today!! The winds were about 40 mph and very tough conditions!! I won the first set easily 6-0, she made alot of mistakes, trying to go for winners!!! Remember what I have told you all, you can't win matches by making winners!!! She settled into the match in the second set but I still went up 4-1. She started to play well, making less mistakes, and tied it up. We finally had to play a tiebreak and I prevailed, 7-5 in the tb!! Our #1, Fran, won in a tight match against a very tough opponent 6-3, 6-4. Australia is the toughest group in our group so we were quite happy to get that one out of the way with a 2-1 win. We lost our doubles, Myke and Sue played that match. Overall a great first day of competition and alot of great matches throughout the venue!!!
