I kind of gave it all I had in the tie-breaker,

I try not to hit a swing volley and run back. So my swing volley is kind of that transition to the net. It's been one of my favorite shots ever since I was young.

I love jotting down ideas for my blog, so I doodle or take notes on all kinds of stuff that inspires me: the people I meet, boutiques I visit, a florist that just gave me a great idea for an interior-design project, things like that.

I've been playing against older and stronger competition my whole life. It has made me a better tennis player and able to play against this kind of level despite their strength and experience.

The match came down to number one doubles. We were up 9-6 in the tie-breaker and had three match points but they won five straight points to close out the match.

We are tied for third. But they have the advantage if there's a tie breaker because they beat Fresno.
