    The players struggled on the Daily Doubles, but those players affected (Jong Ho & Will) got Final right and Will is the 1st Finalist. The last all-female semi-final game of a Teachers Tournament was in 2018, just two years ago.

  2. Lou says:

    We could have a woman in the finals just like what happened with the tournament of champions previously with James, Emma, and francois. This two day final could be similar to that.

    Great. So that’s it, then. No three females on Thursday and Friday.

      But, as you know, we will have a woman in the Finals, because tomorrow, we have 3 Females playing in the 2nd Semi-Final Match… AGAIN! Those 3 women are Meggie Kwait, Amanda Baltimore & Jenna Hall. We may have the possibility of the 2-Day Finals being a 3rd Quarter-Final Game Rematch among all 3 players, and I could be wrong, but I don’t think that’s going to happen when we get to tomorrow’s game, because I’m a little worried about Jenna, even though she’s not my pick to win tomorrow’s Semi-Final Game. Both Meggie & Amanda, in their Quarter-Final Games, led throughout their entire matched, and once they had the lead, they never lost it. We shall see if 1 of them will do the same thing again, or if something different will happen.

        I’m worried about Wednesday. Sam and Lauren will have to be very careful with Ben.
