Venus Williams by Max Cook
It was a beautiful night for tennis at Kastles Stadium, but despite a valiant effort in overtime, the Washington Kastles were handed a loss in front of a sold out crowd by Venus Williams and the Philadelphia Freedoms. The match started out strong for Washington when Scott “Boom Boom” Oudsema took on Nathan Healey in men’s singles, but the final point went to Healey whose serve was too much for Oudsema to handle. The Kastles struggled with basics like double faults and return serves throughout the rest of the match, ending with a 23-16 loss.
Those who went to the match to see Venus play weren’t disappointed as she showed off her powerful serve in women’s singles, mixed doubles, and women’s doubles. It was amazing that Williams, along with Washington’s Rennae Stubbs and Leander Paes, could play at such a high level after competing in the Wimbledon Finals last weekend.
The Kastles get a chance to secure their first win tonight against the St Louis Aces and Anna Kournikova. I’ll say that again in case you missed it. Anna Kournikova. Buy your tickets now!
Anna Kournikova won’t be playing due to wrist injury. She’ll just be there signing autographs.
Well it’s not like the quality of AK’s play has ever really been her prime appeal.
