Crushed! What's to learn?

Is it better to lose than to win? Sometimes. I’m just coming off my worst loss in a long time, having been destroyed by Bob Litwin in the semi’s of the Men’s 65’s at the Boulder Open. 6-0, 6-1. Never could get any traction. I do feel better knowing that I had eight game points on my serve and one break point on his, but that doesn’t pay the bills. Luckily, I recorded the match and will be reviewing it with my coach and making up a game plan for improvement over the next year. Nothing like a good thrashing to motivate one!!

By the way, Mr. Litwin has about 17 national championships and I believe a World Championship in singles.  So, I really do feel good having been as competitive as I was, coming so close to winning as many games as I did.

Post Note:  Reviewed the match with my coach/friend and noticed that I tried to approach with a down the line approach shot 17 times.  Lost 16 of those points.  And I didn’t notice that?? How’s that possible!  🙂
