At the tennis center in Raanana, today (Friday) the Israeli championship was closed, where Shevit Kimchi was crowned for the first time in her career in the women's category.
The match was held in front of almost empty stands, despite the great weather, and 50 children who came from the tennis centers and the entrance was free and free of charge.
If that's not enough, the power also went out several times which caused the sound system and broadcast to stop working, as the organizers made sure to bring a manual scoreboard.
The first final brought Kimchi, ranked first in the tournament, against Mika Dagan Fruchtman, who surprised and took the first set, but Kimchi later got into things, cheered herself up and eventually took the match with 6:3, 0:6, 2:6.
