Nigeria’s David Adeleye and Great Britain’s Alisha Ndukwu won Tennis Foundation’s Ghana Open - Accra ITF J30 boy’s and girl’s singles title, respectively.
Nigeria’s David Adeleye won the first ITF junior title after dominating with a straight-set win over Ghana’s Kwasi Frimpong 6-3, 6-0.
‘I was dreaming of it many times. Last week I watched how Nii Ankrah lifted the title, so I wished to be in that situation one day. It’s like a dream come true for me," Daniel Adeleye said.
In the girl’s final, Alisha Ndukwu of Great Britain captured her first junior title with a win over her compatriot Grace Chinwike.
