Kerri Walsh Jennings has played three full Olympic beach volleyball tournaments and is in her sixth World Championships, and never before has she been part of such a rout at a major competition.
The three-time Olympic champion and partner April Ross thumped Paraguay’s Gabriela Filippo and Michelle Valiente 21-6, 21-10 in the round of 32 at the Worlds in the Netherlands on Wednesday.
Walsh Jennings, who played with Misty May-Treanor from 2001 through 2012, set personal records for Olympic or Worlds play for largest margin of victory in a set (15) and fewest points allowed in a match (16) and matched her mark for shortest match (29 minutes), according to BVBinfo.
