Qualifying went as expected in Tijuana at the Mexico Open, the last event of the 2009-10 International Racquetball Tour (IRT) season. So, the potential matches we wanted to see - Beltran versus Jason Mannino in Mannino's last IRT tournament, Ben Croft versus Mexican lefty Javier Moreno, and Canadian champion Kris Odegard against Andy Hawthorne are all on tap for the 16s.
The Round of 16 begins at 11 AM Pacific time with the quarter finals beginning at 5 PM. Those rounds can be viewed for free over the web at IRTNetwork.com with the semi-finals and final available on Saturday and Sunday for a small fee.
