— The start was a little slow. The shuttles were a bit slow and it took me a while to adapt, but after that I found the rhythm and he maybe got a bit frustrated, Toby Penty says.
Semi-final is the goal
The English men’s single has been struggling with injuries in 2018 but it does not mean that the ambitions are gone.
— I hope to be as competitive as possible in every match. I missed a lot of tournaments and training due to injuries, so I just want to do good here, Penty says.

— It would make me satisfied to reach my seeding which is the semi-finals, but I know each round of these tournaments are hard. Most players know each other well, but I would like to go far in this tournament.
