SATURDAY- WORLD TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS

We played the finals today and we won the Team World Championships!!! It was and awesome match. We played the French Team, who we played last year in the semis and was also a battle. Fran played first and she played great. Won easily, but the match was more difficult than the score indicated. Gretchen played second and she also played a very tough opponent. The match ups were exactly the same as last year. Gretchen's match was a battle. She was down 5-1 in the first set and came back to win it in a tiebreaker. She lost the second and in the third set at 2-1 on serve, her opponent pulled a calf muscle and had to default the singles!!! Unbelievable, but the court conditions here in Mexico really took a toll on the players this year. We were all very sore after every match. In any case, we were the World Champs once again!!! We worked well as a team and it paid off!!!! USA is the 2010 Margaret Court Champions again. Travel day tomorrow. A 6 hour bus ride to San Luis Potosi, for the World Individual Championships!!!
