yesterday was the first day of the 2nd leg of SAP League.. due to the absence of many players for the SUKMA trials, there were many new faces in the Division One.. people like Mukhzani, Dennis, Clara, Jisha, Chetvinder and even Raaman..

Hayate is the favourite to win this time around and has been given top seeding.. He has beaten every player who is in this division before.. Ryosei, another japanese, is the second seed.. he's a totally different player compared to Hayate.. he likes to play a more flamboyant game.. the 3rd seed is Fakrul from perai who in the previous leg beat me in the last round to take 9th position.. i am the 4th seed.. the way i see it, its a tight battle for the title and i really hope i can play my best to challenge for it..

i played against Chet yesterday.. not exactly a tough match but he did make me sweat.. i beat him 10-8, 9-0, 9-4.. i will face Jonathan today.. i have beaten him in the first leg before and i know i can repeat that result today.. i've trained with him before in the past and i know his game.. i will go all out because this is a game i cant lose.. i have to at least reach the semis..

well, thats all this time around.. will update later tonight if possible about my quarter-final match with Jonathan..
