PREVIEW - 2017 WRT Grace Warrior Ministries Atlanta Open

Andree Parrilla will try to win his 3rd consecutive World Racquetball Tour (WRT) event in Georgia this weekend at the 2017 Grace Warrior Ministries Atlanta Open in Lilburn, Georgia. Parrilla is the #3 WRT player, but he’s the top seed this weekend, as #1 Rodrigo Montoya and #2 Alejandro Cardona won’t be in Atlanta.

But David Horn and Jake Bredenbeck will be there, and are the #2 and #3 seeds, respectively, with Gerardo Franco rounding out the top 4. Also notable in the draw are Jose Diaz, as the 6th seed and doubles partner with Bredenbeck, and Ecuadorians Fernando Rios and Jose Daniel Ugalde, as well as Japanese veteran Hiroshi Shimizu, and Colombian Sebastian Franco.

You can watch the action live from Lilburn via the WRT website beginning at 4 PM Friday with the quarterfinals. The semi-finals will be 11 AM and noon Saturday with the finals at 5 PM for singles and 6 PM for doubles.
