The U18 International Tennis Federation’s Group 5 Tournament 2015 ended last Sunday at Da Nang’s Tuyen Son Sports Village. 

Ms Fan Chiang Sing-le from Taiwan took the first prize in the women’s singles category, whilst she and her teammate Chang Jui-Yun won the women’s doubles event.

The winners of the men’s singles and men’s doubles categories were respectively Jack Wong from Hong Kong, and the pairing of Otico John Bryan Decasa from the Philippines and Sae-oui Suphawit from Thailand.   

During a recent interview with a reporter from the Da Nang Newspaper, the Head of the tennis section at the Viet Nam Sports Administration, Mr Doan Quoc Cuong, remarked that Da Nang had successfully fulfilled its role as a host city for this kind of international event for the first time and the city had received high praise from the International Tennis Federation.

Mr Cuong said that the Da Nang Tennis Federation took the initiative by borrowing tennis training courts to allow contestants to improve their skills before entering the competition.  In addition, there were shuttle bus services connecting their accommodation with the training courts and the Tuyen Son Sports Village.
