She was not suffering from fatigue the way the others were. The order of events were mixed doubles, girl's doubles, boy's doubles, girl's singles and then boy's singles. It was simple enough. The only challenge were the Idut boys. It was the rare instance where Anna carried Reilly through the matches. Everyone else did terrible. They were out by the second round. Girl's doubles were the same way. Zoe was a liability on the court. Anna was still able to keep things in play. She got a bit more aggressive here. It led to a lot of points being won. It also led to a lot of points being lost due to hitting the balls out. They still managed to win the tournament together. The god tier team of Reid and Rhys prevailed. Ronan was still a bit shaken up. They made it to the semifinals before he had to forfeit. He was just too drained to continue. Especially if he was going to do the singles tournament. Mitchel had frowned, but he understood. Evan was not there so Reilly would also be in the singles tournament. Singles was much different to doubles. She had so much ground to cover. She lost round 1.
Zoe managed to make it all the way to the finals. She lost to Molly. That was amazing. Anna congratulated them. The boy's tournament only had 29 people. Ronan and 3 alphas had bye rounds because they had the most points to their names in singles. Reilly had to face off against a beta. He demolished him. He had been warmed up from the mixed doubles and he had time to rest. He was not 100%, but he hardly needed 65% to win at this level. The second round saw both boys in the round of 16. It was a good start. Both were up against alphas. Not having to play as much served Ronan well. He was able to win in straight sets. That was really good. Reilly also managed to beat his opponent. The quarterfinals were a breeze for Ronan and Reilly. It did not even look like they were breaking a sweat. They met in the semifinals. As this was not his normal event, he decided to forfeit. Ronan got another free round in the tournament. The people watching criticized him for that. The Idut brothers were used to that. Ronan dropped the second set. He rallied back to win the next 2.
Ronan winning the singles, Reid and Rhys taking the doubles and Reilly dominating the mixed doubles gave the brothers that iconic sweep. One that was missing in the clay Ashar Open. This success had made history in this country as well. Anna had to think if it was history when they won in Breaca. Maybe they just buried it because they were national high school champions. No one made a big deal about it back home. The trophies were given. It was going to be crass for them to challenge their wins now. Everyone knew that the boys were coming. The border guards called them in advance. They also won a tournament across the border. Once the prize money was awarded, they boys wanted to go home. There was no point in staying in a dangerous country. With the money they had earned, it was easy to get a plane ticket. Flying home made Anna ill. Rhys was the one to look after her this time. Everything they had been working for could all have gone up in smoke. It was very stressful. Having all of them doing so well, however, meant that they would indeed be able to profit.
