Satterthwaite was a baseline player with a game based on safety and keeping the ball in play. In 1930 she played against Lucia Valerio in the final of the Bordighera tournament on the Italian Riviera. At match point her determination not to make an error resulted in a rally which lasted 450 strokes. Satterthwaite won the point and the match. In 1931 she competed in several Riviera open championships, reaching the final on 13 occasions and winning eight titles, defeating among others Cilly Aussem and Betty Nuthall.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phyllis Satterthwaite」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
