Well, the tall lady and I are back in Atlanta after a tough tournament. One come from behind win and then two hill-hill losses made for a very grumpy Debbie. Plus, the casino was all strict and stuff about taking pictures, so there weren’t nearly as many pictures as we normally get. For some reason, pretty much the only place to take pictures was by the bathroom and no one really wanted to get their picture taken there.
At any rate, word has it that our girl will be making her ESPN debut next month, as she was invited to do a few player on player interviews. Needless to say, if they get on the air you can be sure that we’ll put them up on the blog.
Ah Debbie, she’s all about making things exciting. In her first match, she came back from 6-1 to win 8 straight racks and take her opening round match 9-6, but in her second match she wasn’t quite so fortunate. Debbie found herself matched up against Melissa Herndon and ended up losing a 9-8 hill-hill heartbreaker.
Next up for the tall one is the winner of the Morgan Steinman/Rachael Abbink match. Looking ahead, if Debbie is able to win her third match, she’ll be matched up against Liz Ford, Dawn Hopkins or Ming Ng. The winner of that match will then go up against the loser of the Jennifer Chen/Jeanette Lee match to get to the redraw. Debbie plays at 3:15 PST today so come to the live stream and cheer her on.
Ok, the tall lady gave us quite a scare, falling behind 6-1 to Rachel Eliazar before tearing off 8 straight racks to win 9-6. Next up for our girl is either Melissa Herndon or Stephanie Mitchell.
Back later with more updates!
