It took the experienced American pair just 33 minutes to win the final at the first tournament on the 2014 FIVB World Tour.


Walsh and Ross gave Juliana and Maria Antonelli a hard time in the first set, displaying solid defence in the back row and at the net and pulling away in the middle of the set.


The Brazilians started well in the second set, jumping to 4-1 ahead, before Walsh and Ross used an 8-2 run to overtake the lead.

After Brazil saved a match point Nike Air Jordan 12 For Sale , Walsh secured the set and the title with a brilliant blocke on Juliana.


"It's all we wanted. We're always excited to be on the top of the podium," said the 31-year-old Ross.


"All the best teams in the world came to this Open, because this is the first tournament of the season. It was a very, very tough tournament, a good indicator of how tough this season gonna be."


Ross, who took silver with Jennifer Kessy at the London Olympics Nike Air Jordan 1 For Sale , started to pair up with Walsh in September last year following Kessy's retirement. With the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro looming ahead, the two veteran players now aim to build a partnership work hard amid high expectations.


"We're still going as a team. I think we've made strides at this tournament. We just hope to get better and better," said Ross.


"April and I are a new team. We have to improve a lot. We are excited to improve. This Tour is gonna make us so strong because everyone is great. We're looking forward to the challenge and we want to win gold in Rio," said the 35-year-old Walsh.


Earlier in the morning, Walsh and Ross came from one set behind to beat local favorites Xue Chen and Xia Xinyi 2-1 (14-21, 21-15 Nike Air Jordan 11 For Sale , 15-11) in the semifinals, while Juliana and Antonelli downed Maria Clara Salgado Rufino and Carolina Solberg Salgado (15-21, 21-13, 10-15) for their spot in the final.


Fuzhou native Xue and Xia overcame the disappointment of missing out a place in the final by edging Maria Clara and Carolina 2-0 (21-19, 21-18) to take the bronze.


"We had prepared to play three sets, but we finished it in two sets Nike Air Jordan For Sale ," Xue said afterwards. "I think we played with pretty a lot of patience today. We managed to hold our rhythm even when we were falling behind in the first set. That's key to our victory."


Xue, who started to pair up with Xia after the world championships in July last year, said she and Xia was very satisfied with her performance at the tournament.


"I think the competition over the past week is even more helpful than training two months, because you have to play under great pressure here, while in training you are usually less stressful," said Xue.


Fuzhou Nike Jorjdan 4 For Sale , capital of the Fujian province, lies on the southeast coast of Chinese mainland and hosts the Open event for the second straight year.
