Dude, The Golf Man is a living legend. You know a man means business when his XBL motto is "service." The question is, what are we speaking of servicing? I'm guessing probably males.

Well, after only 1 week together, Baghdad and his short lived coach G Gray have parted company. Unrest in the camp has led Baggy to have Sir Cannon sit by his side one last time before he goes back to show business...

Yeah, I was surprised to not take a single set. They were three highly contested sets, though- don't be fooled. I think it was Baghdad's consistency that helped him bring it home at the end. I think at times my levels of play would peak EXTREMELY high and other times where I was just plain off. It were these moments where I really lost my footing and unfortunately the match.

It's really not a match you could possibly be upset about, though win or lose. It was just two guys going out and playing 110%, giving their all but at the end he was the one to prevail. :-)

I was waiting for one of both's point of view to say something. I was very much shoked by the result. I love Bagdad's game but i never thought he could make it since Jesse reaches the highest level ever evertime i got to see him play.
I never saw you, Jesse, play bad or miss shots regularely in a match. That's what I think. I mean by that Laith must have made you play bad (or at least less good ;-) )
I am very estonished and don't misundesrtand me, I like you both, but i am glad our national bagdad could make something no one never did.

Did you guys managed to record the match ?? I hope you could. I can't wait to see it....

No unfortunately not. We were lucky to actually even get to play due to my unfortunate internet drop out over last weekend. I am definitely going to work on setting up the capability to do that, though in case such a need should arrive again.

To be honest I did not even break a sweat in my match against Bill, I know this because my head band did not fall off my head even once...oh...I tell a lie, it fell off once but it was because of the strong winds :lol:

Know but serious, as Bill said, it was a very close match. Bill had 0/3 break points and i created 1/5. Bill had more winners and probably more unforced errors than he is used to. Typically i had less winners but significantly less unforced errors.

I have realized I always play better in ITST tournies than I do in friendlies, kind of a big match player I suppose. Also my motivation in comebacks is substantially higher than when I was on top for the year I was number 1. For example in Roland Garros I was semi-retired for 6 weeks then came back and won and now doing well in the Australian Open.

Bill is a great player, there is no doubt about that and the one player who a winning edge and amazing skill and resilience all over the court, unlike none other in SIM. On another day this could of been Bill's match but I guess it was just my day and I was hungry for it.

Alex, I love and have always loved you saying "our baghdad" or "our national Baghdad", it always makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside :oops: :lol:
