Meanwhile yesterday in Doha first 4* tournament (very important for Olympic ranking) in this season started. Already we had some interesting results and scores, for example in match between  Agatha/Duda against  Keizer/Meppelink in 1/16 finals in first set we had result 35-33 for the Brazilians, in the end Agatha/Duda wins the match 2-1.

The entire Doha tournament is streamed live on youtube (Beach Volleyball World). I was watching some parts while working from home. Including that tense v match. Both teams lost multiple match points in the 3rd set as well.
