Shuttle Cock

Getting to the top and staying on top are 2 different things. This weke in badminton was about staying on top and boy was it tough.

While trying to work to improving your game, ther eis always a tendency to make mistake and such mistakes translate into the game running away from you, when you finally get a grip.... you and your partner are down 9-0, 7-2 or 12-2 then you claw back into the game.

I am the only indian there and yet they do not discriminate against me. A game is a game, Played my 1st RM1 game today and lost but won back later one.

My arsenal is my drop shot, it deadly to the extent the guy across the net exclaimed in frustration cursing. Jen was kind enough to translate and brought a smile to my face. My weakness is my back hands, i can still chop to the net, andcross court net...I can measure the shuttle to land near the net and it become predictable. A far cry from a point, I could never take a backhand at all.

My consistance in my game is also a sore point. I could have a run of 4 -5 points then rattle of a series of stupid mistakes. When I am on fire, I am flying. In some series of exchanges I know the space to push the shuttle to and make the guy rung around not to take it to the next level.

Time to go jogging!! Thoress where are you.... I dun mind you be my fitness coach lol
