Yanick Guba, sis dominate Milo netfest

-
BACOLOD – The brother-and-sister act of Yanick Guba and Martina Guba dominated the 2001 Milo Junior Tennis Cup and Regional Workshop after the La Carlota netters captured four titles between themselves here at the Negros Occidental Tennis Association (NOTA) clay courts.

Yanick chased down Manila’s Chase Tinio, 6-1, 6-4, for the boys’ 18-under division crown and Janjie Soquino, 7-5, 6-1, in the boys’ 16-under class; while Martina edged Bernardine Siso of Cebu, 6-3, 7-5, in the unisex 10-under group and Claire Cortes, 6-3, 6-4, to bag the girls’ 12-under bracket.

Yanick and Martina shared the limelight with NOTA’s Gerard Bergavera in the boys’ 12-under; Arithmetico Lim of Manila in the boys’ 14-under; Melody Barraquias of Dumaguete in the girls’ 14-under; Berry Sepulveda of Cebu in the girls’ 16-under; and Benebeth Patindol of La Carlota in the girls’ 18-under divisions.

NOTA president Vicente Bugaay graced the awards rites in the Milo netfest organized by the CTW and supported by Adidas and Sports Kids.

Bergavera stopped giant-killer Daniel Macalino, 6-3, 6-1; Lim outlasted Mauric Lao, 2-6, 6-0, 6-1; Barraquias downed Loren Barrientos, 6-4, 6-1; Sepulveda edged Patindol, 4-6, 6-0, 7-6; and Patindol retired the same rival in the higher age group.
