Martinez Vich, already eliminated from contention before the match, put up a valiant effort, but the day belonged to Staksrud, who continues to impress.
“The field is tough. All the players are good. It’s really tough to play three events in this kind of tournament when all the champions are out here. It feels like every day is a Championship Sunday times three. You’ve just got to keep stretching, competing, and hydrating because it’s always going to be a battle.” – (Staksrud)
