Sixteen-year-old Christina McHale of New Jersey has won a wild card into the main draw of the Australian Open next month, defeating Gail Brodsky 6-1, 6-0 today in the final match of the round robin competition at the USTA High Performance Center in Boca Raton. The USTA conducts the tournament to decide who will receive the wild card exchanged by the two countries for their respective Grand Slams.
McHale won all three of her matches in the round robin this week, in straight sets over Cecil and Vandeweghe, and in three sets over King yesterday.
