A final discussion between Fiona Steil-Antoni and Sam Shankland. In one word, Sam said the tournament was “enjoyable”. A mixed bag of a player who played remarkably there. Both his play and company were greatly enjoyed in Berlin. Hope to see you soon, Sam! (this is an offer, you don’t have to say you like that one!)
