Kiick's father, former Miami Dolphins star, dies at 73

   Jim Kiick, a star running back on the legendary Miami Dolphins teams of the early 1970s and the father of professional tennis player Allie Kiick, died Saturday in Wilton Manors, Fla., at 73.
   Kiick had Alzheimer's disease and was living in an assisted living facility.
   "I'd like everyone to know that I have read every single comment about my dad," Allie Kiick, who will turn 25 on Tuesday, tweeted Sunday. "Please continue sharing all your stories and pictures. Brings tears of joy. Thank you all so much. Happy Father's Day to the best Dad in the world. I love & miss you so much #21."
   With formidable runners Larry Csonka, Mercury Morris and Kiick, Miami reached three consecutive Super Bowls (1971-73) and won the last two. The 1972 Dolphins remain the only NFL team to go undefeated in the regular season and playoffs (17-0).
   Kiick scored on one-yard touchdown runs in both of Miami's Super Bowl victories. In the three Super Bowls combined, he rushed for 88 yards on 29 carries (3.0 average).
   The Dolphins drafted Kiick, a New Jersey native, in the fifth round in 1968 out of the University of Wyoming. He rushed for at least 500 yards in each of his first five seasons, all with Miami, and topped 1,000 yards combined rushing and receiving in each of his first four years.
   Kiick led the American Football League with nine rushing touchdowns in 1969 and ran for a career-high 738 yards (4.6 average) in 1971. The AFL merged with the NFL in 1970 and became the American Football Conference.
   Kiick missed only one game in his seven years with the Dolphins, when the regular season lasted 14 games rather than today's 16. He ranks fifth in Dolphins history with 3,644 rushing yards.
   Allie Kiick, 5-foot-7 (1.70 meters), climbed to a career-high No. 126 last June after missing two years (2015-17) with mononucleosis, a rare skin cancer on her back and four knee surgeries. During her layoff, she taught tennis in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and took biology classes at Broward College there.
   "My back is like a road map, scars everywhere," Kiick, currently ranked No. 160, told wtatennis.com in 2017. "I've matured a ton. I think that came with working a regular job, going to school, seeing things from a normal person's perspective.
   "The job I had was like $25 an hour, and it was hard work. They were, like 5-year-olds, and it was hard. I can honestly say I do not want to ever be a coach. Ever."

Sanchez gives doubles plaque to inspirational woman

   After winning her second Challenger doubles title in two weeks, Maria Sanchez gave away her plaque.
   Not that the 25-year-old Modesto product was unappreciative.
   Sanchez, who teamed with Francoise Abanda to win the $50,000 Boyd Tinsley Clay Court Classic in Charlottesville, Va., on Sunday, was so moved by a fan's story about losing one of her legs a few years ago that she gave her the award.
   "She deserved it more than I did as she's gone through so much but still manages to bring light into people's lives," Sanchez wrote on Instagram. "That's the name of the game! Definitely what I needed after a hard week!"
   The unseeded Sanchez and Abanda, an 18-year-old Canadian sensation, dominated third-seeded Olga Ianchuk of Ukraine and Irina Khromacheva of Russia 6-1, 6-3 for the title.
   Sanchez also won the doubles crown in the $50,000 Challenger in Dothan, Ala., with Johanna Konta of Great Britain last week.
  Sanchez has reached the doubles final in three of her four appearances in Charlottesville. She won the 2012 title with since-retired Yasmin Schnack of Elk Grove in the Sacramento area and was the runner-up last year with Irina Falconi of West Palm Beach, Fla.
   Also for the second straight week, Sanchez lost in the first round of singles to American Jessica Pegula in straight sets. Pegula's billionaire father, Terry, owns the Buffalo Bills of the NFL and Buffalo Sabres of the NHL.
   Sanchez, however, defeated Pegula to win the inaugural FSP Gold River Women's Challenger in the Sacramento area in 2012.
   In the Charlottesville singles final, Allie Kiick outlasted Katerina Stewart 7-5, 6-7 (3), 7-5 in a 3-hour, 5-minute battle of unseeded American teenagers for the biggest title of her career.
   Kiick, 19, is the daughter of Jim Kiick, a running back on the undefeated Miami Dolphins team of 1972. Stewart, 17, also lost in the Dothan singles final to Louisa Chirico, 18, of Harrison, N.Y. 

Larcher de Brito pulls out of Gold River Challenger

   For the second straight year, Michelle Larcher de Brito of Portugal withdrew from the $50,000 FSP Gold River Women's Challenger after reaching the third round of Wimbledon as a qualifier.
   This year, however, the Challenger is being held one week later. Qualifying begins Saturday at the Gold River Racquet Club in the Sacramento area, and the main draw is scheduled for Monday through July 12. 
   Also pulling out of the tournament on Thursday was American Allie Kiick, the daughter of former Miami Dolphins running back Jim Kiick.
   Larcher de Brito, 21, was the highest-ranked player in the field at No. 102 in the world, and Kiick, 19, was third at No. 143.
   The top remaining players are No. 128 Olivia Rogowska of Australia, No. 146 An-Sophie Mestach of Belgium, No. 149 Madison Brengle of Bradenton, Fla., and No. 150 Nicole Gibbs of Santa Monica. Also entered is 33-year-old Alexandra Stevenson, a 1999 Wimbledon semifinalist.
   Brengle, suffering from a stomach problem, fell in last year's Gold River final to Mayo Hibi, then 17. Hibi plans to play in a $25,000 Challenger in Gatineau, Canada, rather than defend her title in the tougher Gold River tournament.
   Gibbs starred at Stanford, winning the 2012 and 2013 NCAA singles titles and the 2012 doubles crown with Mallory Burdette.
   Larcher de Brito stunned multiple Grand Slam singles champions Maria Sharapova and Svetlana Kuznetsova at Wimbledon last year and this year, respectively.
   At 14 in 2007, Larcher de Brito helped the now-defunct Sacramento Capitals win the last of their record six World TeamTennis titles.

Little women: Perez, Anderson reach Redding final

day in the second round of the $25,000 Redding Challenger.

   Professional tennis isn't just the land of the giants, although it sometimes seems that way.
   Petite Adriana Perez of Venezuela and tiny Robin Anderson of Matawan, N.J., will meet today at 12:30 p.m. for the title of the $25,000 The Ascension Project Women's Challenger at Sun Oaks Tennis & Fitness in Redding, Calif.
   Perez, seeded fifth, dismissed seventh-seeded Allie Kiick of Plantation, Fla., 6-3, 6-3 in Saturday's semifinals. Kiick, 18, is the daughter of Jim Kiick, the fifth-leading rusher in Miami Dolphins history.
   Anderson, 5-foot-3 (1.61 meters), topped 5-11 (1.80-meter) Julia Boserup of Newport Beach 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 in a matchup of unseeded players. Boserup, who turned 22 on Monday, won the 2011 Redding title but missed the first six months of this year with a bulging disc.
   Perez and Anderson, both 20, will face each other for the first time. Perez, ranked No. 237 in the world, seeks her second Challenger title in her third final. Anderson, a UCLA junior ranked No. 624, will play in her first Challenger final.

round on Thursday, beat Julia Boserup in the semi-
finals after trailing 4-6, 3-5. Photo by Paul Bauman

   Both players survived close calls en route to the final.
   Perez edged unseeded Catherine Harrison, Anderson's teammate at UCLA, 2-6, 6-2, 7-6 (6) in the second round. The No. 1 Venezuelan then beat top-seeded Olivia Rogowska of Australia 7-6 (4), 5-7, 6-0 in the quarterfinals.
   Anderson, who reached the singles round of 16 and doubles final in the NCAA Championships in May, trailed Boserup 5-3 in the second set. Boserup double-faulted nine times in the match, and Anderson converted five of 16 break points.
   Anderson also will play in the doubles final, which follows the singles. In an all-American encounter, Anderson and Lauren Embree will face Jacqueline Cako and Kiick. Both teams are unseeded. Cako (pronounced CAY-ko) won last year's doubles title with American Sanaz Marand.
   Cako graduated in three years from Arizona State in biological sciences in May and was named the Pacific-12 Conference Women's Scholar-Athlete of the Year. She plans to attend medical school after her pro tennis career.

   The top three seeds lost on Friday in the quarterfinals of the $25,000 The Ascension Project Women's Challenger at Sun Oaks Tennis & Fitness in Redding, Calif.
   Fifth-seeded Adriana Perez of Venezuela knocked off top-seeded Olivia Rogowska of Australia 7-6 (4), 5-7, 6-0.
   Second-seeded Ksenia Pervak of Russia retired with a back injury while trailing unseeded Julia Boserup, the 2011 champion from Newport Beach, 6-4, 2-2.
   And seventh-seeded Allie Kick, 18, of Plantation, Fla., ousted third-seeded Chanel Simmonds of South Africa 6-4, 6-4.
  The only quarterfinal that held form was unseeded Robin Anderson of Matawan, N.J., beating Christina Makarova, a 17-year-old qualifier from San Diego, 6-1, 7-5.
   Rogowska eached the second round of last year's Australian Open in her hometown of Melbourne. She's ranked No. 138 in the world.
   Pervak climbed to a career-high No. 37 in 2011 after advancing to the fourth round at Wimbledon and winning the title in Tashkent on the WTA tour, the major leagues of women's tennis. Hampered by injuries this year, the 22-year-old left-hander has fallen to No. 142.
   In today's first semifinal at 11 a.m., Boserup will face Anderson for the first time.

champion, led 6-4, 2-2 at the time. Photo by

   Boserup, a hard hitter at 5-foot-11 (1.80 meters), missed the first six months of the year with a bulging disc. She did not have surgery.
   Anderson, only 5-foot-3 (1.61 meters), reached the round of 16 in singles and the final in doubles at the NCAA Championships in May as a UCLA sophomore.
   After the Boserup-Anderson match, Perez will take on Kiick. They have met once, with Kiick winning 7-6 (10), 6-2 on a hardcourt in the first round of the $25,000 Rock Hill (S.C.) Challenger last October. The Redding Challenger also is played on hardcourts.
   Kiick's father, Jim, was the starting halfback on the 1972 Miami Dolphins, the only team in NFL history to go undefeated. Jim Kiick and his '72 teammates were honored last month at the White House.
   Macall Harkins, who moved from the Los Angeles area to Redding in March, lost in the doubles semifinals. Unseeded Jacqueline Cako and Kiick topped fourth-seeded Harkins and Sanaz Marand 6-4, 7-6 (4) in an all-American matchup.
   Cako and Kiick will meet unseeded Anderson and Lauren Embree of Marco Island, Fla., in Sunday's final. Cako and Marand won last year's title.

Kiick, daughter of ex-NFL star, tackles pro tennis

Miami Dolphins running back Jim Kiick, turned
pro in April. Photo by Paul Bauman

   REDDING, Calif. — Watching the television news in her New York hotel room on Aug. 20, Allie Kiick was shocked when her father appeared on the screen.
   Jim Kiick was among nearly three dozen members of the 1972 Miami Dolphins, the only undefeated team in NFL history, being honored by President Barack Obama at the White House.
   "I got on the phone, and I'm like, 'Dad, did you want to tell me you went to the White House?' " Allie, 18, of Plantation, Fla., cracked today after winning her first-round singles and doubles matches in the $25,000 The Ascension Project Women's Challenger. "He was just telling me all about it, and he's like, '(Obama's) a great guy.' (The team members) really enjoyed getting together because they don't usually do that."
   The Dolphins went 17-0 in 1972, including three postseason games culminating in a 14-7 victory over the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl VII in Los Angeles. Kiick, the starting running back, scored Miami's decisive touchdown on a one-yard run.
   Championship teams routinely are honored at the White House today, but that was not the case then. Also, President Richard Nixon was preoccupied with the Watergate scandal. Finally, the legendary Dolphins team was recognized. 
   "I know that some people may be asking why we are doing this after all these years," Obama deadpanned at the time. "My answer is simple: I wanted to be the young guy up here for once."
   Kiick traveled to New York last month for the U.S. Open. She lost in the first round of singles qualifying to 17-year-old Mayo Hibi, who won the $50,000 Sacramento Challenger in July, and in the opening round of women's doubles in her Grand Slam main-draw debut.
   Kiick and Sachia Vickery of Miramar, Fla., had earned a wild card in women's doubles at the U.S. Open by winning the title in the USTA Girls 18 National Championships in San Diego in early August. Vickery defeated Kiick in the singles final in three sets. 
   Seeded seventh in the Ascension Project Challenger, Kiick ended a five-match losing streak by holding off 17-year-old qualifier Anne-Liz Jeukeng of Boca Raton, Fla., 7-5, 7-6 (1) at Sun Oaks Tennis & Fitness. Kiick came away with mixed feelings, though.
   "I got the win, which is always good, but I didn't feel I was playing my best tennis, unfortunately," lamented Kiick, who's ranked No. 297 in the world after turning pro in April. "It's tough getting used to the California conditions. The air is a lot thinner, so the ball will fly a lot. I was really having a hard time finding my strokes today."
   Kiick also struggled in the heat, which soared to 105 degrees (40.6 Celsius). Her match mercifully began at 10 a.m., but she said Northern California's dry heat is different than the heat and humidity in Florida.
   "When I don't sweat, I don't drink as much as I should, so that throws me off a bit. I kind of miss my humidity," Kiick said with a laugh. "Also the fact that we're playing on hardcourts (rather than clay) adds like another 15 degrees on the court, so it's like a sauna out here."
   Kiick will meet Despina Papamichail of Greece on Thursday in the second round. Papamichail, 19, outlasted Jelena Pandzic, 30, of Croatia 7-5, 2-6, 7-5. Pandzic lost to Jamie Hampton, now ranked 25th, in the 2010 final.   
   Another 17-year-old qualifier, Christina Makarova of San Diego, had more success than Jeukeng. Makarova knocked off eighth-seeded Sanaz Marand 6-3, 6-4. Marand reached the quarterfinals last year and won the doubles title with fellow American Jacqueline Cako, Kiick's partner this year.   
   Robin Anderson routed Krista Hardebeck 6-1, 6-1 in a matchup of Pacific-12 Conference stars last season. Anderson reached the NCAA doubles as a sophomore at UCLA, and Hardebeck helped Stanford win the NCAA team title.
   In doubles, Americans Elizabeth Lumpkin and Emily Harman surprised top-seeded Maria-Fernanda Alves of Brazil and Olivia Rogowska of Australia, 6-3, 6-3. Rogowska, also seeded first in singles, will open against Montserrat Gonzalez, 19, of Paraguay on Wednesday.
   Kiick has watched clips of her father, the fifth-leading career rusher in Dolphins history, on YouTube.
   "It's very funny to see his little hairdo and everything," Allie said of Jim's bushy hair and beard. "Gosh, I couldn't imagine him being like that. But yeah, I saw him play. I saw him score a touchdown in the Super Bowl or something like that, so it is really neat to see, actually."
   Naturally, Allie and her parents are avid NFL fans. Jim and Mary, who are divorced, actually favor the New York Giants because they grew up in New Jersey. Allie, tired of the Dolphins' losing ways, reluctantly converted to the Giants. 
   "When the Giants play, we are all glued to the TV," Allie said. "I'm not really a Giants fan, but since the Dolphins aren't very good and my parents love the Giants, I kind of go with them."
   Allie, 5-foot-7 (1.70 meters) and 135 pounds (61 kilograms), inherited considerable athletic ability not only from her father but her mother, who played professional softball. Allie wanted to compete in an individual sport "where if I win, I get all the credit." She tried swimming but didn't like it. Next was tennis, the 8-year-old was hooked.
   Jim taught Allie to throw a football, which she still does because the motion is similar to serving.
   Allie also inherited her parents' competitiveness.
   "My whole family is (intense), which is a good and a bad thing," Kiick said. "When we play sports together, it usually ends in an argument. Even if it's a card game, we all just want to win. It kind of ruins the purpose of having fun."
   "I'm a very competitive person. That's not necessarily a good thing. When I'm out on the court and I miss a few shots, I get mad. I want to be a perfectionist. I just want to beat everybody so badly, and that creates a bad attitude."
   Jim Kiick, the macho former pro football player, couldn't handle it when his 11-year-old daughter beat him 8-0 in tennis, so he quit playing. Nor does he attend Allie's matches much anymore because he gets too emotional.
   "He would scream at me when I was on the court, and I'd be like, 'Shut up, Dad.' " Allie said. "He'd yell back at me, and we'd have like a conversation arguing back and forth, and my mom would be like, 'Jim, stop!' "
   Mary now is married to Curtis Johnson, an ear, nose and throat doctor who financed Allie's tennis exploits until she turned pro.
   "He's awesome," Kiick said. "Without him, I probably wouldn't be where I am today."
   Kiick verbally committed to the University of Florida, the 2011 and 2012 NCAA champion, but changed her mind after a strong start this year. She qualified for the Sony Open in Miami on the WTA tour in March and reached the semifinals and final of two clay-court Challengers in the southern United States in April.
   "The deal with my parents was that if I turn pro, I have to pay for everything myself," Kiick said. "I kind of took a risk, but I'm doing pretty well right now."

Aussie Rogowska heads field in Redding Challenger

   Olivia Rogowska of Australia is seeded first in this week's The Ascension Project Women's Challenger in Redding, Calif.
   Main-draw play in the $25,000 tournament begins today at 10 a.m. at Sun Oaks Tennis & Fitness. The temperature is predicted to reach 103 degrees Fahrenheit (39.4 Celsius) later in the day.
   Rogowska reached the second round of last year's Australian Open in her hometown of Melbourne. Now ranked No. 137, she will face 19-year-old Montserrat Gonzalez of Paraguay on Wednesday in the first round at a time to be determined.
   Seeded second is Ksenia Pervak, who climbed to a career-high No. 37 in 2011 after advancing to the fourth round at Wimbledon and winning the WTA tournament in Tashkent. Hampered by injuries this year, the 22-year-old left-hander from Russia has fallen to No. 142.
   Pervak will take on American qualifier Rosalia Alda today at 10 a.m.
   Also seeded, in order, are Channel Simmonds of South Africa, Veronica Cepede Royg of Paraguay, Adriana Perez of Venezuela, and Americans Samantha Crawford, Allie Kiick and Sanaz Marand.

   Crawford won the U.S. Open girls singles title last year. Kiick reached the USTA girls 18 singles final and won the doubles title with Sachia Vickery last month in San Diego. Both Crawford and Kiick are 18.
   Kiick's father, Jim, was a running back on the 1972 Miami Dolphins, the only undefeated team in NFL history. He scored a touchdown in Miami's 14-7 victory over Washington in the 1973 Super Bowl.
   President Barack Obama honored the 1972 Dolphins, including Kiick, last month at the White House.
