[7] Fayrouz Aboelkheir (EGY) bt Hollie Naughton (CAN) 11-9, 11-2, 11-5 (27m)
Hollie just moved back to Canada and today, she was coached by her ‘old coach’, 15 years of collaboration, David Palmer… So nice to see Dave here!

It was the first match on the tournament, it’s so hard to play against Hollie.
It’s the biggest tournament of the year, everybody comes here with big expectations. And I knew from the first point it was going to be tough. So I’m happy I managed to close the first game especially, as it was the most important.
Tomorrow, I’m playing Melissa Alves, I think it’s going to be a great match, I’m looking forward to it, I can’t wait to perform. I thought I had a off day, but in fact, I don’t! It’s tomorrow!
