Unfortunately Igor lost to a very tight match of the second round match in Dubai.
Igor lost in the 1st set 2-6 but then won the 2nd set 6-3. The third set had a dramatic end as Igor lost in the Tie break 6-7 (2-6)!
What a match!!! In the begginning of the match things looked bad but thankfully he regained his strengths and motivation in order to face a 3 set match.
Let's hope he'll continue with the good work...
