At 2008 NCAA Division I Men’s & Women’s Tennis Championships, Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA (May 15-26)
In shocking upset top-seed Virginia lost semis against 4th seed and defending champion Georgia ... Somdev won his singles and doubles matches ... But in singles Dominic Inglot lost crucial match to gave advantage to Georgia ... And with that Somdev's dream of winning NCAA championship for UVa was over.
In deciding match Sanam played against higer ranked opponent, Jamie Hunt ... But at the end of second set he was struggling with cramps but still he finished the match.
Quote from NCAA site - Georgia sophomore Jamie Hunt clinched the match 6-0 in the third set of his No. 4 singles against Virginia's Sanam Singh. But the outcome was a foregone conclusion by the time it ended.
Singh, who had already taken two injury timeouts because of cramping, chose to finish the match even though he could barely move. His serves were delivered at grade-school speed, and Hunt simply had to deliver them back.
