May and Walsh Triumph
Again
 Klagenfurt,
Austria, August 2, 2003 - America's Misty May and Kerri
Walsh successfully defended their A1 Klagenfurt Grand
Slam title on Saturday after crushing arch-rivals Ana
Paula Connelly and Sandra Pires Tavares of Brazil in
another surprisingly one-sided final on the SWATCH-FIVB
World Tour. The 2002 World Tour champions collected
their third title of the season, and their second in
succession, with a 21-17, 21-12 victory, a result that
mirrored their gold medal triumph in Marseille two weeks
ago when they were also convincing winners over the
Brazilians. Third place went to Adriana Brandao Behar
and Shelda Kelly Bruno, the Brazilian duo securing the
bronze with a 21-17, 21-18 victory over Americans Holly
McPeak and Elaine Youngs earlier in the day.
