New Mexico Racquetball Events InformationUSA SWEEPS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM COMPETITIONS
Led by #1 player Rhonda Rajsich, the USA women defended their world title. Although ill earlier in the week, Rhonda rebounded with a tremendous upset victory over singles world champion Christie Van Hees. Rhonda's victory was even more significant when the USA doubles team of Laura Fenton and Aimee Ruiz lost to the Canadian doubles team. If Rhonda had lost her match the team title would have gone to the Canadians, but the victory meant that it was up to Cheryl Gudinas to win the title for the USA women. After what most people would agree has been one of the most successful careers ever as a USA team player, it was fitting that the championship came down to Cheryl's match. Cheryl showed everyone why she is the ultimate team player, and beat Canadian Jen Saunders in two straight, thus giving the Women's championship to the USA.
