Despite him being a veteran, he plays very solid and consistent tennis and uses his subtle defensive touches to his advantage. He has the ability to use much of the power generated from his younger opponents to fuel his counter attacking game just like what <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martina_Hingis"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Martina Hingis</span></a> does. Many of our younger players have suffered his wrath as he is able to turn his defensive shots into excellent counter attacking touches that leaves many of his younger counterparts completely stranded.<br /><br />His strength mainly lies in his intelligent counter attacking game and this ability was demonstrated to the fullest when he upset the eventual <a href="http://regentville.blogspot.com/2005/10/bullion-open-park-tennis-tournament.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Bullion Open</span></a> tennis champion, <a href="http://regentville.blogspot.com/2005/08/players-apollo.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Apollo </span></a>in the group stages of the tournament. <a href="http://regentville.blogspot.com/2005/08/players-apollo.html"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Apollo</span></a> was handed his only defeat during the group stages, although he eventually went on to win the tournament, much credit has to be given to BK for upsetting the tournament’s 3rd seeded player and eventual champion.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">BK pictured (right) during the 2005 <a href="http://www.masters-cup.com/en/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tennis Masters Cup</span></a> held in Shanghai.</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15314101-114079876631260381?l=www.regentville.com'/></div>regentvillehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02482321552754544921noreply@blogger.com1
