Hello I am Ganesh. I have a State Ranking Tournament in this following week in India, Karnataka. I wanted some very important tips to remember when I am playing the match and the key things for winning.

Thank you,

Ganesh Desai

Hi Ganesh,

Focus on playing well.  Stay calm during your games and think about the tactics you require to win each and every point.  Take every point one at a time.

Good luck with your tournament.
