Olympic champions Eduarda ‘Duda’ Lisboa and Ana Patrícia Ramos will have the home crowd entirely against them on Saturday, the last day of matches of the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour Elite event held in Newport Beach, as the Brazilians will be fighting three duos from hosts the United States for gold in California.
Duda and Ana Patrícia will play Julia Donlin and Lexy Denaburg in one of the semifinals, at 12:00 local time (19:00 GMT), while Taryn Brasher/Kristen Nuss and Terese Cannon/Megan Kraft are set to meet in an all-American duel one hour earlier. The winners will battle for the title at 16:00 (23:00 GMT).
