MARC Nicole Suson from Cebu City continued his winning ways in the Baybay City leg in Leyte of the Cebuana Lhuillier Age Group tennis Championship Series, while local player Anica Giorgia Cari matched his feat in the girls’ side with both players ruling the 16-under and 18-under categories in their division.

Suson was unstoppable in both finals, beating the same opponent in Stephen Zion Guia with ease.

He won the 16-under with a  6-1, 6-0 victory and duplicated the feat in the 18-under finals with the same score.

On the other hand, Cari disposed of another local bet Mariniel Gorgonio in the same fashion, winning, 7-5, 6-0, in the 16-under championship match before repeating against the same foe, 6-1, 6-0 in the 18-under finals of the tournament supported by Dunlop as the official ball.
