Smith marches on in A Class

Date:

RACHEL SMITH and Asabi Downey continued their title bids when Touch Of Class Women’s Road Tennis Tournament continued at the Deighton “Pa” Roach Tennis Facility in Bush Hall on Monday night.

Smith, who has often looked good but is yet to claim a national title, was brutal in dismissing the well attired Margo Lorde 21-6, 21-11 in the A Class.

Overaggressive tactics by Smith saw Lorde doing better in the second game to celebrate with a pumped fist at 10-16 when she averted the ignominy of a double sow.

Tonight, Smith will play either Estherphyne Holder or Abigail King who were to meet in last night’s quarter-finals. (KB)
