Delizavernne does Malaysia proud


DELIZAVERNNE Kaur emerged champion at the recent ATP Under-14 Series Tennis Tournament in Ramna.
The 14-year-old clinched the girls’ title by thrashing Hong Kong’s Winona IP Wai Lam 6-1, 6-2 in the final. Delizavernne, whose brothers Pearljit Singh and Duzbionjit Singh are among the top-15 ranked local players, is the No 1 ranked Asian player in the girls' Under-14 category.
She has earned 1,190 points followed by Indonesia’s Tame Grende (1,000) and South Korea’s Kim Da Bin (920).
Coached by her dad, Bhoopinder Singh, the youngster wants to become a top professional player in the near future. Delizavernne definitely has the potential to do so if she continues to train hard.
