After his win over Simon, Andy was satisfied with his progress so far,

“Even if it means I’m not hitting the ball as well as I want to, I’m still finding the ways to get through matches. Whereas last year, it felt the other way around. I was hitting the ball well in practice and finding ways to lose matches, so I’d rather have it this way.”
