so, since we're not actually putting out picks here we might as well write anything concerning the team championship, right?
About the Quarterfinal USC vs STAN
This might be the last time for a while non STAN team can win the championship, so the stakes could be high.
USC MUST WIND THE DBLS, and it's possible.
USC can win #1 & 3, hey let's say they can sweep all 3. Tan/Tsay lost to Oregon dbls at Ojai, so
SINGLES
1. ZOE VS GIBBS
Possible. If Zoe's serve works, possible. What's Zoe better than Gibbsy? Only serve and defense. So, utilize it. Oh, she's taller too, right?
So follow Amanda Fink's tactic which was successful against Barte at 2009 Ojai semi.
RELENTLESSLY ATTACK GIBBSY'S BH SIDE, SENDING HIGH BALLS FOR GOOD MEASURE.
I don't care how much Zoe gets hit winners by Nicole. Amanda was the same, yet she won.
2. STAN, Lao will be blown away.
3. Sabs vs Stacey;
Hmm, could be interesting, no? Sabs can hit hard too. But Stacey beat Juricova..will be
difficult.
4. KK vs Tsay
Last time KK lost easily to Tsay. Tsay will naturally come up to the net. Can KK pass her?
5. Li vs DeSimone/Pulido
Pulido beat Gabi to win the invite. What'll be the lineup? Curious.
Li hits harder, but D/P are more consistent.
6. Dillon vs D/P
A MUST win for USC.
--------
Now let's say Ahn plays at #4;
KK vs Ahn
Anything is fair in love and war and match :lol:
KK, move Ahn AROUND. RELENTLESSLY. Ahn decided to play, despite the ankle injury, so don't be soft against her. ATTACK. If Ahn is rusty, and can't move around fast, KK might actually have a chance
If Ahn plays at #5 and Gabi plays her, same scenario. Gabi can move the opponents around relentlessly, as shown in Ojai.
