 Men's
German Grand Slam
Berlin, Germany June 25-29 2003
Harley
and Franco Take First Grand Slam
 Berlin,
Germany, June 29, 2003 – Brazil’s Harley Marques
Silva and Franco Jose Vieira won their first
SWATCH-FIVB World Tour event together on Sunday when
they downed Argentina’s Mariano Baracetti and Martin
Conde in the final of the $300,000 Berlin Grand Slam.
The duo, who only got together in March, defeated the
2002 World Tour champions
21-18, 21-16, which allowed Harley to successfully
defend the title he won last year with his former
partner. It was an emotional and fully-deserved
victory for the pair and gave Franco his first World
Tour title since 1996, the year he finished top of the
rankings.
