Monica Puig tops Angelique Kerber to claim Puerto Rico's first ever gold
I THOROUGHLY enjoyed watching this women's tennis gold medal match yesterday. Monica Puig came through despite all the odds, being ranked 34th in the world, and having to get by the # 4 (Garbine Muruguza) in an earlier round, and beating a super-tough Angelique Kerber (# 2 in the world!!!) to win the gold. I hadn't done that much high-fiving since the old Trinidad days. And....... she's only 22. Good things ahead for Monica.
Pica Power!!!!
1st gold for P.R. at an Olympics since......... well, since ever.
