Bouncing back after its first loss, the expansion Chicago Smash surfed past the Orange County Breakers 23-16 Wednesday at Center Court at Creekside at The Greenbrier.
In a match that epitomized “team” tennis, Chicago did not have the lead until late in the third match – mixed doubles – but managed to hang tight early to set up a charge by Sloane Stephens in women’s singles play. In the final match, the Smash closed out the decision in women’s doubles behind Bethanie Mattek-Sands and Eugenie Bouchard. […]

Abby and Ford watched Querrey’s first two matches for the Rollers – both losses – but missed Tuesday’s match.
Querrey may want to excuse his wife and son from the stands for the remainder of the three-week season, as he dominated San Diego’s Ryan Harrison in men’s singles to set the tone and help the Rollers to a 23-21 win in Extended Play. […]
