Sunu, Maya win Hemaviton Challenge
The Jakarta Post Jakarta
Top seed Sunu Wahyu Triaji continued his winning form when he notched up the boys' singles title of the inaugural Hemaviton Challenge junior tennis tournament her on Sunday.
Joining the U-18 category, Sunu thumped third-seeded Christian Adinata 6-1, 6-1 in the apparently lopsided final matches at the Bung Karno Tennis Court in Central Jakarta.
Maya Rosa, who was also the top seed at the tournament, took the girls' title with a convincing 6-1, 6-0 over third-seeded Nancy Metriya.
The two opponents then teamed up to win the doubles with a 6- 1, 6-2 victory over Cecilia Isadora/Mega Sukmawati.
Sunu's victory came at the back of his international-level triumph at the ITF (International Tennis Federation) Junior Championship here last week.
"I played with relax like I will usually do in training. Christian seemed too tired that he made errors regularly," Sunu said as quoted by Antara. He will turn to overseas next week as he plans to take part in Malaysia before continuing the trip to Thailand.
The boys' doubles final match which should have paired Bramadita Dian Trisna and Sandy Purnomo against Armendio Anggara and Jonathan Amdanu, was scrapped with the organizers announcing that Sandy Purnomo and Jonathan Amdanu were unable to play because both had departed to Malaysia for an ITF junior event.
In the U-14 competition, the singles' title went to Agung Bagus Dewantoro and Mia Sacca. In the finals, Bagus beat Fendy Gunawan 6-1, 6-0 in the boys' category while Mia stopped Lutfiana Aris Budiarto 6-2, 6-1 in the girls'.
Mia and Vivien Silfiani defeated Juan Rosalia and Juan Rosalina 6-1, 6-2 in the girls' doubles final match while Christopher Rungkat and Fendy Gunawan crushed Dwi Asmara and Eko Septian 6-0, 6-0 in the boys' match.
The second series of the tournament will be staged over June 4-10. The top 16 players from the two series will qualify for Master Series to fight for a grand prize of free transport fee and accommodation for international tournaments.
