Natalie and Jackie played the team of Glushkko (ISR) and Rogwska (AUS), who were ranked #429 as a team. Natalie and Jackie were ranked #1374 as a team.
The final started out rocky for us. Went down 1-5, before battling to bring it to 4-5 and then we lost the set. Not out of the lack of trying that is for sure.
We focused the second set and went up 5-2, when they battled to bring it to 5-4. We won the second 7-5. Wew....lots of tennis!
Playing the tie breaker in lieu of a third set isn't anyones favorite, but that is what they do. Went up in the breaker 2-0. And just battled from there to 7 all. The opponents had two great points in a row to finish the match. Natalie and Jackie lost, but what a great effort!
Soooo very proud of Natalie and Jackie....great tournament ladies....Congrats!
