USTA Bobby Curtis Doubles Junior State Championships: A Rainy Tale of Tough Tennis
The USTA Bobby Curtis Doubles Junior State Championships wrapped up recently at the USTA National Campus, with players battling through rain to deliver some exceptional tennis. The tournament, organized by USTA Florida, was a great opportunity for young players to test their skills and determination.

Regardless of the cancellations, the tournament was marked by intense competition, particularly in the Boy’s and Girl’s 18s divisions. One match, in particular, saw a nail-biting finish with a crowd-pleasing serve-by-volley final point.
