ILTL inter match 1,2,3,4: T100h, T100w, TR960CT

 Played 1st ladder league inter match with Anto, ex bostonian. Unintentionally in same ladder league. Warmed up with T100h and then changed to T100w after few game points. Score: 6-4, 6-1. Lots of unforced error in first few games.

2nd ladder league match loss 4-6, 2-6. Opponent Rendrian have great shots on both backhand and forehand but especially backhand. Use T100w, good control but wrist and shoulder sore afterward and put OOT. There was also hindrance from someone smoking and watching in the court.

3rd ladder league match win 8-6 (5-6) pro set with deuce. The opponent Billy can produce good overall serve, backhand, two handed backhand, slice, volley but lack consistency. I had to ramp up focus after trailing 5-6. Tried 2 games with TR960CT but loss both games. Played with newly strung T100-2 with hyperG at 42lbs.

4th ladder league match win 6-3 (3-0), 6-4 (2-2). Opponent Dipta played well, good forehand and backhand. The home court condition helps but I still need to push to attack him. Played with T100-2, some balls sprayed but overall good power and spin.

 Played two sets on saturday before heading to bandung the next day for a night. The sets were: 1-6 hr vs kk-taher (a beginner) W107 then against tough opponents 4-6 (4-4) hr vs ed-bn T100h.

Using W107 is so easy but less control and very spinny, cant flattened the ball.
