Bailey, who started playing tennis some three months ago, showed good competitive spirit as he held his nerve in the final to defeat Lamazon 6-4 in their one set encounter. The category attracted some 16 entrants.
Bailey had earlier missed out on capturing the Novice Doubles title when he and his partner Selwyn Mc Garrell were defeated by IT consultant Dilip Kumar and Vijay Singh who plays out of Diamond Tennis Club. Kumar/Singh took the title with a 6-2 win where they capitalised on their opponent’s affinity to go for shots which contributed to numerous unforced errors.
In the other match played, Gavin Lewis booked a spot in the semi-finals against top seed Jeremy Miller when he defeated Rudy Grant easily 6-1, 6-2
On Monday, the Men’s Open doubles finals will be played, which will see top seeds Jeremy Miller/Jason Andrews face the winner of the match between Nicholas Fenty/Leyland Leacock and Andre and Daniel Lopes that was scheduled to be played yesterday.
