Anton KALLBERG won the title in the Junior Boys Singles Event at the European Youth Championships in Bratislava. In the final he beat Alexandre CASSIN of France 4:1 (4, 8, -9, 6, 8).

“It was long and hard championships. It is hard for me to find the words at the end. In the final, I thought, I was little bit better,” stated KALLBERG. ”It has been long journey and I was under pressure in each match.”

In the semi final top seeded KALLBERG beat Andreas LEVENKO of Austria 4:2 (-10, 7, 7, 5, -12, 12).

“We exchanged a lot of open rallies. He responded very well on my service game. He played very safe on the first ball, so I sought for a solution to beat him,” said KALLBERG.

In other match CASSIN beat Patryk ZATOWKA of Poland 4:1 (8, -7, 10, 7, 8).

“We played against each other six time before and each time I won. It gave me very much confidence at the beginning of the match. The pressure was on him. After 1:0 could read his face and I saw that he lost the focus. However it could be dangerous situation, if you are a favorite. It could easily happened that I lost my focus, so I was very aware of it” said CASSAN.
