My Mojo: Weak Like Little Girl At Critical Times.

OK, maybe that's an overstatement. I must have played pretty well to get a match that close. And I played my typical long grueling match; the type of play I'm usually comfortable with. But this time I just could not get it together at the critical times. My play just fell apart when I needed it to be there. My shots were off, my anticipation was fried, and my mental state was not focused enough. But I had the stamina, at least.
