Breaking local news in Boksburg

Tennis South Africa wheelchair tennis manager, Patrick Selepe, pleads for support from schools for people living with disabilities, government and businesses to increase the number of ITF-sanctioned tournaments for junior wheelchair tennis players to nine, from next year.

“With that, the top 10 in the world in the junior circuit will be from South Africa because we will be the only country worldwide to have this number of tournaments. It will give our players higher rankings,” he said. He said this will allow the players to forge careers internationally, like Montjane, who won this year’s Roland Garros and US Open doubles titles with partner Yui Kamiji from Japan.
