Good for them but hardly surprising given how much Duda/AP struggled to teams levels below them in prior games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh 6,458 Posted March 9 #33 Share Posted March 9 Mel/Brandie through to the gold medal match at the Doha Elite 16, defeating Latvia 2-1! (21-17, 20-22, 15-12) They were 10-15 down in set one, and 2-6 down in set three but still managed to turn it around! intoronto 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh 6,458 Posted March 9 #34 Share Posted March 9 (edited) Mel/Brandie lose the gold medal match 2-0 (21-18, 21-18) at the Doha Elite 16 to Brazil’s Barbora/Carol. Wasn’t able to watch it as the power went out a couple hours before(due to extremely windy conditions) Edited March 9 by Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh 6,458 Posted March 23 #35 Share Posted March 23 (edited) Heather Bansley/Sophie Bukovec through to the semifinals at the Recife Challenge! Sam Schachter/Dan Dearing bow out in the quarterfinals, getting demolished by a Cuban team that I thought they had a solid chance at defeating. Both finishes should be good enough to add useful points towards their Olympic Ranking. For Dearing/Schachter it’s a 5th useable finish, while for Bansley/Bukovec it’s a 2nd.

Josh 6,458 Posted March 30 #37 Share Posted March 30 Heather Bansley/Sophie Bukovec with a quarterfinal finish at the Saquarema Challenge. Very disappointing week for Sam Schachter/Dan Dearing, losing both of their pool play matches. intoronto 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh 6,458 Posted April 14 #39 Share Posted April 14 Bronze for Sophie Bukovec/Heather Bansley at the Guadalajara Challenge! Lost an extremely tight match to Swiss #3 Bobner/Verge Depre in the semifinals (they’re still a really good team, so this was far from a bad result) with the third set going to overtime, and eventually finishing 20-18 in favor of them. Rebounded in the bronze medal match however, defeating Ittlinger/Borger 2-0 and a dominant second set (21-14) at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
