FLASH QUOTES: Samantha Cornett knocked out of squash competition

"I think it’s a maturity thing as well as an understanding of what it takes. I obviously haven’t figured it all out yet but every couple of months I’ve figured out something small and then there’s still something else to figure out. I think I’m on the right track.

How important is the mental game?

The mental game is I would say at least 70% because once you get from one to 20 in the world what separates you? Not a lot.  A lot of it is breaking your opponent. I would say she broke me today. You do that different ways, different person. For me I’m kind of learning it bit by bit.

How important is the Commonwealth Games to you?

This is what I’ve been training for since the last one. So I’m pretty sad to be out. It is the biggest event for squash, numbers-wise. So it’s a bit thing for us. Most of the top players are here. There’s quite a few missing, but a lot of the top players are here."
