Canada's Wilkerson, Bukovec defeat Germany to clinch spot in beach volleyball worlds final
Canada's Sophie Bukovec and Brandi Wilkerson have only played four tournaments together, but they are peaking at the right time.
The new Canadian pair punched their ticket to the FIVB beach volleyball world championship final on Saturday with a 2-1 semifinal win over Germany's Cinja Tillman and Svenja Muller.
Of all the games the Canadian duo has played through the tournament, the semifinal might have been the simplest, at least on the scoresheet, as Wilkerson and Bukovec won the first and third sets 21-15 while dropping the second by the same score.
"It's a dream. I'm so grateful and so honoured to be here," Bukovec said after the semifinal win. "To play on this stage and to play in a final is incredible. Playing with Brandi is awesome."
