Day was originally partnered with April Ross, but due to Ross’s injury, she will now be partnering with Stockman. The duo recently played together at the AVP event in Austin, Texas, where they finished in third place. This will be their first tournament as partners.
In the previous World Championships in 2019, Ross and Alix Klineman won silver. Hughes finished fifth with her then-partner Summer Ross, and Cheng/Sponcil combined for a ninth-place finish. Among the American men, Tri Bourne/Trevor Crabb finished fourth, while Taylor Crabb and the now-retired Jake Gibb took ninth place.
The Competition Format
The Beach Volleyball World Championships consist of 12 pools, each consisting of four teams, for both genders. After a round-robin pool play, the top two pairs from each pool, along with the four best third-place finishers, will advance directly to a 32-team knockout bracket. The remaining third-place finishers will compete for one of the final four knockout berths.
