Sydney Enriquez played true to form and racked up two titles while Kurt Haro grabbed the spotlight in boys’ singles as they shared top honors in the PPS-PEPP Gen San National age group tennis tournament at the GenSan City Tennis Club last Sunday.
The top-seeded Enriquez stopped unranked doubles partner Kyle Rivera twice, scoring a 6-3, 6-1 romp in the girls’ 16-and-under finals then running away with the 18-U plum via a 6-0, 6-2 victory in the Group 2 tournament which kicked off the six-leg Mindanao swing of the circuit sponsored by Palawan Pawnshop.
The fourth-ranked Haro, on the other hand, survived unseeded EJ Sta. Maria, 6-7(3), 6-4, 10-8, to snare the 16-U plum. But the rising Davaoeño star failed to match Enriquez’s feat as he retired against top seed Bruce Hurtado from Koronadal and yielded the 18-U crown in the five-day tournament presented by Dunlop.
