bluepastures Jul 16th, 2003, 07:37 PM Thanks to Palicot for these. I thought some American readers might be interested in these results. I'm hoping for a Llewellyn V Falcon final. I'm almost certain to attend this tournament's final on Saturday instead of the Winchester junior tournament, having seen the interesting draw here.

I'll be going to the final, which is at 10:30 tomorrow morning. So I'll be able to post some photos tomorrow afternoon. Should be a exciting final.

GOOOOOOO, Meg! :bounce:
bluepastures Jul 19th, 2003, 01:48 PM Final:
Megan Falcon (USA) BEAT Rebecca Llewellyn (GB) 6-2, 6-4
I'll be posting the photos I took of this match this evening, once I've had to chance to upload them to my PC.
Despite Rebecca's fighting spirit, at times (especially in the 1st set) Megan really did look in a different class. Rebecca's best chance came when she broke Megan's serve in the first game of the second set, but then Megan broke back straight away. Both players struggled with their first serve, but Megan's 2nd serve is better than Rebecca's.

jojoseph Jul 19th, 2003, 07:57 PM Right on, dude, thanx!
They say she pocketed a cool 600 bucks. :)

bluepastures Jul 19th, 2003, 09:32 PM Jojoseph, according to my info she won £350 for the tournament, but I don't know what the current exchange rate is. Stupidly, the mens winner got £525 even though the draw was of a much lower standard.

Yeah, the important thing is that she starts winning stuff, IMO. Doesn't really matter what it is, I think.
That worked out really well that she won on her birthday.
