Working with Paddy has been super enjoyable and instructive for me and considering the height of the World Championship, there are more emotional struggles than any other tournament. We have had a lot of conversations. I learned a lot. He said a lot of things that have helped me in many of the games. Because Whenever you lose, you also lose your focus or you’ll get emotional but you should come back to the game and play the best move. And it’s not always easy to do, so his teachings have really helped me a lot.
