Cebuano Manito bags two titles in dumaguete
CEBUANO netter Gio John Manito came away as the biggest winner as he completed a twin kill in the Pawnshop-Palawan Express Pera Padala Dumaguete leg regional tennis tournament at the Praxevilla Tennis Courts last Monday.
This after the Pardo, Cebu native defeated Faith Banico, 2-4, 5-3, 4-2, to snare the 10-unisex crown and toppled Lance Orellano, 6-2, 6-1, to pocket the 12-U boys crown.
Not to be outdone was Naga, Cebu’s Vhon Tudtud, who outlasted Reyniel Marcellana, 6-4, 4-6, 10-7, to bag the premier 18-U boys crown.
“These unseeded players’ triumphs only show that the PPS-PEPP program is working in terms of discovering and producing new faces and fresh talents. They should also inspire the other youngsters to continue aspiring for recognition and ranking points in the circuit,” said Palawan Pawnshop president/CEO Bobby Castro in a press statement.
