In response to prompt : Tenterhooks
I was afraid to watch the live tennis match, I waited on tenterhooks for an hour to see the result on YouTube. The result was what I dreaded Roger’s opponent won, he lost to a guy whom he defeated six times in previous tennis matches.
It therefore shows one shouldn’t be too confident, he relaxed for a moment and watched his match slipping away from him, and he could do nothing to stop his opponent!

Dear Ranu,
Thank you for sharing his with us. We can train diligently, but one never knows what the opponent will bring to us.
All good wishes,

Dear Robert,
Thank you, you are right, it does happen even to the best. 🙂
It is good when you watch the match with such involvement because you are actually in the present moment.
I guess you are right, Sonya. 🙂 🙂
