TRAMORE JUNIOR OPEN 2018
The U18 events in the Grade 2 Tramore Open turned out to be a bonanza for Sandycove!
Pride of place goes to Will Fitzgerald, who won the Under 18 singles, in a draw that included numerous top ranked players from all over Munster and Dublin! Will played tennis of the very highest level throughout, beating a Munster Junior Interprovincial player from Cork in the final, 6-3 6-3. Will also reached the semis of the U16 doubles with his partner from Waterford. Big congrats to Will!
Liam Reynolds and Oisin O’Hanlon reached the semis of the singles,and then teamed up to win the U18 doubles in a third set tie break. This win, together with their recent win in Waterford and reaching the final of Carrickmines, now lifts them up to no 7 and 8 in the Irish U18 doubles rankings.
This all augurs well for future Winter and Summer league campaigns!
Well done to everyone out competing in the summer tournaments. I would like to take the opportunity also to wish everyone good luck in our own upcoming Sandycove Junior and Senior Championships and also to our players who will be competing in the upcoming National Championships- the William Fry Junior Lawn Tennis Championships of Ireland in Fitzwilliam which takes place from August 17th- August 25th.
