On December
8th the WinterSunhine Championships was the best draw of players we have had in
Southern Utah. From the local tennis pros, former professionals, local high school
and collegiate level players.
This was
collective draw with all players entered into a single tournament. The top four
seeds, (1) Scott Adams, (2) Phil Oliver, (3) Chris Burkley and (4) Rich Wigley
made it to the Semi-Finals with the top two seeds advancing for an extremely close
championship match.
Phil won
the toss and elected to serve. The first set was close but Phil held serve and
won 3-2. In the second Scott won 3-0 breaking Phil and forcing a third set. To
win Phil needed to hold serve and he did after surviving a break and championship
point when Scott hit the tape on a forehand volley. Phil served out the next two
points to win the WinterSunshine Championships.
