So it is now Thursday and we are in the Quarters of the Team Competition. Yesterday we won easily against the Swedes!! I played #2 and won easily and we won the other matches handly!!We are playing against the Brits now!! I just played at #2 position and won against a very good and tough opponent, 6-2, 7-6. I did not play great, but I competed well and fought hard for every point. She had a great drop shot, and unfortunately I saw a bit too many!!! Gretchen is playing now at #1 position and winning!! Looks like we will be in the semis!! I think we are going to bring home the CUP!! We are a very tough team, alot of depth!!!

We had the big Dinner last night and everyone was dressed in their best outfits and we drank wine, champagne, and had a fabulous dinner. No dancing afterwards, since here in Spain, they start partying very late, 11-12!! Us Americanos are not quite used to that!!! It's truly amazing how the Spaniards can stay up late and play the next day, and well!!!

There are alot of tough matches today, the French are playing the Spaniards and their #2 player just split sets after 2 1/2 hours. It will be a long day for those ladies!! The other tough matches will be the Aussies vs. the Czechs!! I will be watching that match!! We will definitely have a tough match tomorrow and will keep you updated.

I am so proud of our Adams Farm ladies who just moved up to the #1 position in the Gate City League!!! Way to go!!!

Well I must go cheer Gretchen on so I must go!!! Will update you later this pm or tomorrow!!
