Ken played fantastic and didn't miss more than five or six balls all the way through.
bed early far fresh game paid played
I feel as fresh as a daisy, as if I've not played a game so far. I've been going to bed early and getting up early, so far it's paid off
against british fallen last lost open time tip twice
My tip has only ever fallen off twice - the first time was against Stephen at the British Open last year, but that time I lost 5-0!
It's very interesting. They're always doing different things.
couple early good last match results season until win
It's good for me to get a couple of results early on because last season I didn't win a match until well after Christmas.
balls couple doors early feeling lying missed
I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't feeling the pressure. I missed a couple of balls early doors but after that it went really well.
apart both fifth loads players shot sixth
There were loads of kicks, every fifth or sixth shot it seemed, and it was frustrating. But it's the same for both players and there's nothing you can do apart from get on with it.
