The toughest match was the semi-final against the Russian which I won previous year but lost this year. I could definitely fight for victory this year unfortunately I got sick and had to skip trainings. As Latvian Championship is coming I feel excitement before the tournament. I believe I will play well.”

 

Daniels KOGANS finished third in the boys finals. For Daniels it was seventh cup. “The toughest moment was the semi-finals I had to fight for every point. Overall I was confident about my game but less relaxed attitude might be much helpful this time. But I like the way I played. I feel in good shape before upcoming Latvian Championship.”
