[1] Hania El Hammamy (EGY) 3-1 Ruqayya Salem (EGY) 10-12, 11-5, 11-3, 11-8 (49m)
Hania : “Ruqayya is very attacking. I have never played her before, and I couldn’t find any clips of her playing to study beforehand. The preparation is a bit hard when you’ve never seen them play. She takes every shot short, so whenever my length went a bit short, she was firing it in, and it was really high quality.
“It was hard for me to keep digging and find a way to get through.
“Last time we played on this court was in El Gouna a couple of weeks ago, where it was very warm inside. Today was windy, so the ball changed direction a bit, so I had to adapt. I’m glad to get the win and get used to the conditions in the next round.”
