The weekend grind is over for Dianne Hollands, but other than the heat, there wasn’t too much to complain about.
Hollands went 14-0 playing in singles, doubles and mixed doubles on her way to championships in all three open divisions of the Tennessee Valley Open Championships at Manker Patten Tennis Club. She capped off her day by teaming with Robbye Poole to win the mixed doubles division after defeating University of Tennessee freshman Hunter Reese and University of North Carolina freshman Caroline Price 6-1, 6-7 (7-1), (10-8).
Hollands earned $1,300 along the way, while Poole’s payout after winning doubles, mixed doubles and coming in runner-up in singles was $1,500.
Poole’s opponent in singles and teammate in doubles, Brian Baker, had the largest payday by winning $2,350.
Hollands’ day started at 9 a.m. in her singles’ final against Price, and didn’t end until nearly 6 in the evening. She teamed with University of Alabama freshman Emily Zabor to win the women’s open division doubles crown.
