AVP Manhattan Beach photo gallery: Best shots from Atwood, Chu, Gordon, Rigney, Szto
The AVP Manhattan Beach Open last week provided, as usual, great action and colorful scenes.
Our super-hard-working, ultra-talented photographers, Rick Atwood, Will Chu, Andy J. Gordon, Mark Rigney and Allen Szto, often shoot from the same location on the court but come up with all sorts of different photos.
Many of their shots appeared in our previous daily recaps. These are their “best of” that didn’t already post. Click on any photo to view full size. And players, if you use any of these for social media, please credit the guys:
