                    [Summary] => After a masterful performance in China, Russia did even better in Manila, making another big step towards a possible return to the zenith of power in the Women’s World Grand Prix.


It was as if the Russian "devushkas" (lasses) played the Russian roulette on the opposition at the Araneta Coliseum, gunning down one after another the German "Frauleins", the Japanese "Fujians", and finally the Brazilian volleybelles.

                    [Summary] => Two-time titlist Russia surprisingly encountered a tough test against Japan but survived, hacking out a 25-13, 25-10, 23-25, 25-19 win to virtually book a seat in the final round of the Women’s World Grand Prix 2002 at the Araneta Coliseum yesterday.


Later on, Germany bounced back from a loss to Russia Friday and moved back into contention for the Manila leg championship while also boosting its final round bid with a 25-18, 25-18, 25-22 victory over Brazil.


It was payback time for Germany which suffered a five-set loss to Brazil in the Japan leg.

The Brazilians walloped the Japanese, 25-18, 25-23, 27-25, in a virtual repeat of their 26-24, 25-20, 27-25 victory over the same rival in the first leg in Tokyo, keeping their clean slate entering the halfway mark of the preliminaries of the volley spectacle which features the eight best teams in the world.
