Pakistan’s Haniya Minhas became the first girl from the country to win the Asian Tennis Federation 14&U event.
Haniya won the title at the 14&U Sobir Cup Asian Tennis Federation tournament in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, after beating second seed Sumaya Tukhtaeva in the final.
The 10-year-old defeated Tajikistan’s Sumaya 6-1, 6-0 in straight sets while extending her impressive run at the tournament without losing a set.
A Pakistan Tennis Federation (PTF) press release confirmed Haniya’s feat.
PTF President Salim Saifullah Khan and federation’s Executive Committee congratulated the young prodigy on her achievement.
“It is a great honour for Pakistan and the Pakistan Tennis Federation that such a breakthrough had been made by a Pakistani girl. Haniya’s triumph will prove to be an inspiration for other players, especially young girls, and serve as a motivating factor for upcoming players. May Allah bless her with more victories, so that she brings more laurels to Pakistan and Pakistan tennis,” the PTF press release said.
