I don't know who comes up the names for some of these tournaments, but the "Polar Brrr Doubles Tournament"? Really? That's the name of it. They even gave us a long-sleeve T-shirt with a picture of a polar bear playing tennis. Of course.

It was a ton of fun, but not exactly what I would call a "brrr" of a time. It was about 55 - 60 degrees both days. PERFECT tennis weather.

I just wish Kevin and I had played a little more solidly. Not a big deal. We'll get better and better as the weeks go on. We lost the first match 6-3, 6-2. We should have done better, but the tournament was behind and we had abbreviated sets. I wasn't even "warmed up" by the end of the match. The second match was a tad better. We still lost 6-0, 6-1, but we played SO much better than the previous day. We just got completely outmatched. Third time's a charm, they say. We narrowly lost this one 6-4, 2-6, 10-5 (tiebreak). Neither of us could really be upset the way we played. It was a great match. We just have to get better at playing tiebreakers. Every point's a big point in a breaker.

Can't wait for the next tournament! (By the way, the HOT tournament is coming up quickly. That's going to be fun!)
