I was chuffed to meet players. finally, I had never seen a play live before…
Curtis Malik was impressive in the three events, taking out Omar Mosaad in his home club, BlackBall, then losing twice to Ali Farag – very complimentary about the young English player – beating home favourite Mohamed Abouelghar, and finally bowing to Joel Makin! A busy time for the Englishman.
I was happy to meet his sister as well, Torrie Malik, overcoming Sana Ibrahim in 4, and losing to Nele Gilis on the glass – her first ever time on an outside court.
