2007 Coca-Cola ITF Junior Tennis Tournament

Six champions crowned By Robertson Henry

GROS-ISLET, Saint Lucia; Saturday August 11th 2007 – Six champions were

crowned in as many divisions when the final day of action in the 2007 Coca-Cola

ITF Junior Tennis Tournament served off at the Saint Lucia Racquet Club Courts

at Smugglers Cove this morning.

On Stadium Court in an all American clash, Hannah Berner defeated Jessica

Wacnik 7-5 6-3, to take the 2007 Girls’ Singles title.

On Court Three, Kelly Voight of Suriname defeated Daneya Charles of St. Vincent

and the Grenadines 6-0 6-3 enroute to winning the Girls 12 Singles title.

Then at Court Four, the much talented Jualon Greig of Trinidad and Tobago was

unable to stopped Yannick James of Grenada who won 6-4 6-4, and the Boys’

12 Singles title in the process.

In another final played this morning, Suriname’s Sarah Hew defeated Naomi

Braithwaite of Grenada 7-5 6-2 on Court Five to win the Girls’ 14 Singles title.

The Boys’ 14 Singles title was won by Fabrice George of Grenada when he

defeated Gian Issa of Suriname 6-2 6-2 on Court Six.

In the Boys’ 18 Singles final, it was a tough three setter that had spectators

reliving some of the best matches seen in the 24-year-old tournament.

The pendulum swung from one player to the other, that spectators were

wondering if Bradley Bryan would have lasted to the end.

He did everything to conserve the little energy he had, but Darian King prevailed

7-6 (4) 3-6 6-3, winning the 2007 Coca-Cola ITF Junior Tennis Tournament Boys’

18 Singles title.
