Patience is key
THURSDAY AUGUST 07, 2008, GROS-ISLET, Saint Lucia – Stacey Roheman of
Saint Lucia received a timely lesson in patience, just hours before her Girls 14
Doubles final with her partner Thira Calder of Grenada.

She was playing Daneya Charles of St. Vincent and the Grenadines in a Girls 14
Singles semi-final clash on Stadium Court. Stacey over powered Daneya in the
first set, but her opponent stuck to her game plan, forcing the more powerful
Stacey to commit numerous unforced errors.
Into the third set, the two went, but cramps soon became a factor, and Stacey
Roheman was forced to receive treatment on court.
Daneya Charles refused to be deterred, and kept up the pressure, and
advanced to the Girls 14 Singles Final with a 4-6, 6-2 6-0 victory over Roheman,
who now has to review her mental game if she is to enjoy more successes.

In the first Girls 18 Doubles semi-finals, Carlista Mohammad and Raye-Ann Sandy
defeated Lois Alexis and Gizelle Clarke 6-2 6-2. They will now clash with
Fausthyara Pietersz and Mara Schmidt in the final.
Pietersz and Schmidt over powered Nelo Phiri and Sabrian Tahir 6-2 6-1 in the
other Girls 18 Doubles semi-final.
Kevin Deligny and Devard Wharton stopped Blake Brookman and Jean-Sebastian
Dionne-Roy 6-4 6-2 in their Boys 18 Doubles semi-final, and will now meet

in the other Boys 18 Doubles semi-final.
