Our next game is going to be very interesting... the name on everyone's lips from every team at the world's is 'Fosbrook'. Various protests and appeals follow this player everywhere he goes, as he is able to do things on the court that no other player on the planet can do. He isn't a quad, which makes it more difficult for the classifiers, but they are professionals, and they'll classify him in or out for good at these world championships. I'm sure they've been looking at him closely in game situations over these past three games where he's been the #1 dominant player on the court, and we'll soon see how the latest rounds of protests and appeals went in this controversial case. Even without Fosbrook, GB has an experienced team that always makes their opponents work their hardest. They are our first opponent of the day, but we'll be ready for whatever they've got to throw at us.
Meanwhile, check out the grid and the scoreboard. Game results will be as real time as possible tonight.
