03.06.2010 15:21:22 | Member of TK Agrofert Prostejov, Jaroslav Pospisil, surprisingly advanced into the semi-finals of UniCredit Czech Open. For him it is the greatest success ever achieved and, what is more, he got promoted into the torunament from the qualification!
"When I was in the first round of qualification losing 1:6, 1:3 and my opponent had three break-balls, I thought everything was over. In the end I was able to reverse the development of the match, won qualification and then even succeeded in a very important match against seed no. 8, American Russel."
A victory over Spaniard Alcaide followed and in the semi-final he defeated Frederic Gil. "After I won the first set my self-confidence increased and I believed in victory although I was losing 0:3 and 1:4 in the second set."
In the semi-final he is going to clash with his club colleague, Jan Hajek. "We know each other quite well, we are training together, but I have never defeated him in any tournament so far."
