Must-Win Wednesday
For the American men’s team Patterson/Gibb and US women’s team Day/Kessy, the sense of urgency to come back with a decisive win today is very real.
Both teams suffered a first match loss on stadium court yesterday. With so many skilled teams in each pool, every single match is similar to a finals at any other event - so the pressure is on. Each team only plays four matches in their pool, so two losses puts a team in danger of taking an early exit from these Swatch Beach Volleyball FIVB World Tour Finals. Only the top three teams in each pool will move on and continue competition through the weekend.
