Nigeria\u2019s David Adeleye won the first ITF junior title after dominating with a straight-set win over Ghana\u2019s Kwasi Frimpong 6-3, 6-0. \u2018I was dreaming of it many times. Last week I watched how Nii Ankrah lifted the title, so I wished to be in that situation one day. It\u2019s like a dream come true for me, Daniel Adeleye said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the girl\u2019s final, Alisha Ndukwu of Great Britain captured her first junior title with a win over her compatriot Grace Chinwike.

Alisha closed the first set without facing a break point. It was that type of dominance that she carried into the final set, where she broke Chinwike three times to take a commanding 5-0 lead. Alisha sealed the win after Chinwike double faulted on her serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
