SVG’s young tennis hopefuls had a day to forget when competition in the main draw of the Junior ITF Tournament got on the way on Monday at the National Tennis Centre at Villa.

Amarlia Benn, Nikalette Hadaway and Myka Williams all came up on the wrong side of the results on a very competitive day.

Benn was beaten by India’s Nairuti Vyas in straight sets 6-1, 6-0, while Hadaway was no match for TnT’s Kimberly Sagba who ran away with a 6-, 6-0 win.

In day 2 of competition, two more Vincentian players were in action.
