Guba
caps summer
stint with twin crowns
Her summer was hectic, demanding and tiring.
The month that just passed, however, was also rewarding for young Martina Guba, who boosted her reputation as one of the hottest teenage tennis talents in the country. The 14-year-old girl from La Carlota City capped a spectacular campaign outside her home province with another double crown yesterday in the Manila leg of the Head Penn Masters Tournament in Paranaque.
Since her return from stints in the World Junior
Tennis Championships in India in April and the Junior Federation Cup in Malaysia
early this month, Guba produced a remarkable run of six titles in three tournaments,
including yesterday's victories at the Olivares Sports Center.
