ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s rising tennis star, Mikaeel Ali Baig, Friday stormed into the final of the ITF Junior Tennis Tournament J-30 in Colombo (Sri Lanka) after a stunning victory over Singapore’s Luke Koh 7-6 (7-3), 7-5.
Luke started as the tournament’s No.1 seed with world ranking No 442. Mikaeel was a key member of Pakistan’s Junior Davis Cup team that triumphed in the Pre-Qualifying event of Asia Oceania in Kuching, Malaysia, last week.
President of the Pakistan Tennis Federation (PTF) Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi extended his heartfelt congratulations to Mikaeel on his outstanding win. He praised the remarkable progress of Pakistan’s junior players, emphasizing that their international performances reflect a promising future for tennis in Pakistan.
“This is a breath of fresh air for Pakistan tennis, and I am confident that our junior players will continue to make the nation proud,” he said. PTF secretary Ziaud Din also wished Mikaeel the best of luck for the final.
