China beats USA in FIVB Phuket Thailand Open final

PHUKET: It took just two sets for the Chinese team, Chen Xue and Xinyi Xia to beat the American pair Emily Day and Summer Ross and win the gold medal in the FIVB Phuket Thailand Open Powered By PTT 2013.

The Americans failed to crack the great Chinese wall despite numerous attempts and the high flying, petite Xinyi Xia’s precise blows earned her team precious points and loud applause from the audience.

In the match for third place, Maria-Clara/Carol team beat their fellow Brazilians, Agatha/Antonelli.
