Due to what a World Team Tennis representative called a technical
glitch on the league Web site, the result of Monday’s match between
the Newport Beach Breakers and Sacramento Capitals was incorrectly
reported in Tuesday’s edition.
Sacramento defeated the Breakers, 23-17, behind decisive wins in
men’s and women’s singles.
Sacramento’s Elena Likhovtseva defeated Maria Sharapova, 5-3, in
women’s singles, while Daniel Nestor topped Brian MacPhie, 5-1, in
men’s singles.
Sharapova and Eva Dyrberg earned Newport Beach’s lone win, a 5-3
women’s doubles decision over Ally Baker and Likhovtseva.
Likhovtseva and Mark Knowles defeated Josh Eagle and Dyrberg, 5-4,
in mixed doubles, while Knowles and Nestor defeated Eagle-MacPhie,
5-4, in men’s doubles.
Rosie Crews, a representative of a public relations firm employed
by WTT, said a test run-through done Monday morning, listing
erroneous scores and players, was mistakenly posted on the Web site’s
results page, until it was corrected late Monday night. The initial
erroneous posting, accessed before deadline, was reported.
