Congratulations to everyone on the team who played the 2008 Bay Area Open held last weekend (Feb 15-17)! All of you put on outstanding performance and displayed excellent sportsmanship and willpower. The Bintang Team had an almost CLEAN SWEEP in singles across all the flights, reflecting our team's breadth and depth!!!
Thomas Blanchet WON the "A" level, Men's Singles Championship in a very intense and exciting game, with many people watching! It got more and more intense towards the end of the third match and Coach almost had a heart attack. ^_^
Son Nguyen WON the "B" level, Men's Singles Championship, also in a very intense finals game against one of his long time on-court rivals. Not only did Son display great skill, he put on a very entertaining show, with his crazy flips and dives!!!
Dominick Lim WON the "C" level, Men's Singles Championship, over teammate Kendrick Uong. Both of them had to fight teammates Brent Dano and Francis Yao in semi's to play the finals. In the "C" level men's singles, we took first to fourth place, beating out opponents from all over! The two best matches in this category were Kendrick taking out the #1 seed in quarterfinals and Brent taking out an ex-Bintang player in first round!
Connie Hwang WON the "B" level, Women's Singles Championship. BWS was round robin format and Connie beat all of her opponents in straight sets. Not too hard there.
Phoebe Lin WON the "D" level, Women's Singles Championship. She had to fight hard in the finals match but won in straight sets. (Too bad Catherine was sick. Otherwise, the two of them would probably have met in finals.)
Congratulations also goes out to the rest of the winners from our team. Charlie Yang took 2nd in "D" level Men's Singles. Christine Yang took 2nd in "Under 12" level of Girl's Singles. Chetan Potu won consolation finals in "D" level Men's Singles.
A big hand goes out to all of you! Keep up the hard work and great dedication. We are very, very proud.
