"All my players have started well and hopefully we will reach our targets. 

"The matches will get tougher from here on, but we will aim to execute our plans and try to achieve what we expected."

England's Jack Shephard and Krysten Coombs remain on course to meet in the final of the men's singles SS6 event.
