W15 Alcala de Henares 15,000-dollar tournament in Madrid

A challenging tournament in Madrid and a look ahead

This week's program included a 15,000 dollar tournament in Madrid. Although the elimination in the second round was disappointing, the tournament still provided valuable experience.

The conditions were demanding: unusually cold temperatures for this time of year made playing a real challenge. The cold not only affected agility, but also the general feel of the game. The balls were also extremely hard, which made it difficult to control the ball and made the game even more intense. Despite these circumstances, the players tried to give their best and adapt as best they could.

After a long break due to illness, the aim was to get back to my usual level of performance. The time off the court has shown how much the sport is appreciated and how important it is. It wasn't easy to get back into competition mode, but every day on the court brings you one step closer to top form. The matches in Madrid have provided valuable insights into what still needs to be worked on.

They are determined to work hard and achieve the goals they have set themselves. The season will therefore end with a final clay court tournament in Melilla, Spain. They are very much looking forward to playing on clay again and bringing the experience they have gained to this tournament. The remaining time will be used to prepare intensively and work on weaknesses.

The coming season is already casting its shadow and we are looking forward to it with optimism. New challenges await and the focus is on further development.
