The first-ever Kiva Club Open concluded Sunday, and produced many winners. Chris Hanson, who is ranked No. 85 in the world, won the professional draw. He beat 17-year-old Jesus Camacho, 3 games to 1, in an hour-long match Sunday afternoon. (Click here for more details.) Hanson is a 24-year-old left-hander who lives in Greenwich, CT. Camacho, who is world No. 202, is from Mexico. The Kiva Club Open also had an amateur draw for doubles and singles.
