SOB - Ixtapa Day #7

Friday is finals day. From an initial pool of 96 men and 96 women, there are 12 of each gender left - spread across three different skill levels. The top division men and women play off on center court, surrounded by all the other people on the trip (and a fair number of people walking by on the beach). It is quite a spectacle and makes for some great photos. There is one professional player of each gender in the tournament and they are expected to win. Of course, they have to beat the other three on the court to come out on top. Professional Geena Urango pokes the ball over a determined blocker during the Añejo Women's Finals.
