Being out of singles after losing yesterday to the 6th seed, has Natalie on the practice court today. She will team up with Sanaz Marand (USA) for doubles. They are tournament ranked 473. The opponents are Laura Pous-Teo (ESP) and Arina Rodeonova (RUS), who are tournament ranked 705. They will play tomorrow, fourth on after ten.....code for 3ish. Should be a good solid match of doubles. And of course this bias mom predicts "our team" win be victorious!
There is live scoring and broadcasting of some of the matches at the tournament site, here is the link:

Last night, Natalie was able to enjoy fellowship with her host family and the neighbors. Guess ping pong was the sport of the night....with....a lot of trash talking.....too funny! Much fun was had, which was a great thing after yesterday's loss.
