Most important, he knows me and how I react to situations. He knows when to push me and when not to push.

Considering it is early in the season, I'm pretty satisfied with my performance. My focus right now is to peak for the Commonwealth Games. I struggled in the preliminaries but I was much better in the semis and even better in the final. I'm happy with how I came back.

I want everything to be good. Before I start 10-metre I'll make sure I'm in appropriate shape and make sure everything is right.

He remains my best friend of course and he wants the best for me, so he doesn't talk to me about it. We have our friendship and coach-athlete relationship.

Even though that story was sad and bad for both sides I suppose, he's still my buddy,
