Hi Guys, this is Ted Lerner. I'm at the araneta coliseum. I briefly spoke with Daryl just before the match started. I was amazed at how relaxed he was. It was mere minutes from the match to start and he was potting balls alone at the practice table. Several fans came up to him and asked to pose for photos and he happily obliged them. He told me he was a little nervous and that's to be expected. He said that's a good thing. I was impressed. Gomez was practicing on the other table and looked tight.
