Kim Holder is the undisputed queen of road tennis in Barbados.

Mixing finesse with raw power, Holder retained the Touch of Class Freida Nicholls Road Tennis crown in front of a large crowd on Friday night at the Deighton “Pa” Road Centre in Bush Hall.

The Transport Board bus driver drove all over and around challenger Abigail Haynes 21-9, 21-12.  That sparked off murmurs about how Haynes was the last woman to defeat Holder on November 22, 2008.

Haynes did show some glimpses of her obvious talent but after a close 8-6 in the first game, Holder unleashed her power to destroy Haynes and silenced the camp which expected an upset.
