CG wins battle of the headbands!

This match illustrates how you're never out of a match until the last point is won!  BW was clearly the likely victor with 1-set under his belt, and leading 3-1 in the 2nd.  Then, all of the sudden - there seemed to be a change in momentum!  Halfway through the 2nd set - CG's serve progressively became better, and better! Although both players were hitting great strokes, BW started hitting a little long!  This combined with CG coming alive as he fought off nausea from his pre-match burrito - resulted in a come-from-behind victory which took 11 unanswered games to win in 3-sets!  The heat index was 109 degrees during the match! CG tops BW 4-6, 6-3, 6-0.
