Hi Ben,
Wow, well done on making the team.
I once played the New Zealand Open Junior tournament in 1981… I think in Napier.
I think the focus for you needs to be just on working hard between now and then. During the tournament, the most important thing is relaxing and allowing yourself to play your game naturally. Focus on each point as it comes up.
If you start thinking about letting other people down your focus immediately goes away from the ball and the next point. Enjoy the experience and learn as much as you can and you won’t let anyone down.

Gerada v Lu
Once again Alois and Jeff discuss a great match from the PingSkills Classic. This is the first quarter final between the number 1 seed Simon Gerada and Percy Lu. Without giving too much away, just make sure you watch the incredible backhand that Percy Lu hits in the 4th set. It really is the shot of the tournament.
