I believe there is of course some form of the day argument, but I generally followed the strategy to not play weak high cross courts, in particular returning the serve onto my backhand. Also I rather kept the ball long and reasonably tight. Dropping makes me commit too many mistakes. I have to work on that. Christopher retrieved really well, but generally once in the attacking position I could bring the point home.<\/p>\n<p>Bottom line: this was a great day, I have to work on my strategy with Christopher and consider strategies to win the game with other players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, I played Squash with Christopher Malenfant which I have regularly won a set against but rarely a match and never the first match we played in a session.
