Local tennis payers started the ITF/CAT Under-14 second leg poorly after losing to Burundians at Dare es Salaam Gymkhana Club.
Johah Solomon played below par and Ted Mtwari capitalised on his weakness to post a 6-1,6-1 victory in both sets.
Mtwari, who reached semi-finals in the first leg ties held in Kenya, was impressive from the onset.
He unleashed unstoppable strokes, which left hapless Solomon staring several times.
Another Tanzanian, Amir Moza, had a disappointing start in the girls’ discipline after being beaten 0-6, 0-6 by Sifa Harerimana of Burundi.
The event, which attracted participants from the East and Central African region, saw Makoi Serito of Tanzania beat his compatriot, Julius Samuel 6-1,6-1 to advance to the second round.
The tournament has been jointly organised by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) and the Confederation of African Tennis (CAT) and hosted by the Tanzania Tennis Association (TTA).
More than 45 junior tennis players from Kenya, Burundi, Sudan, Mauritius and the hosts, Tanzania assembled to compete in the weeklong event.
In the first leg tournament, Adam Nourdin of Sudan emerged winner of the boys� championship after triumphing over Ibrahim Shaban of Tanzania 7-4,7-5 in the finals.
Dawda Nikita of Kenya managed to triumph over Samah Adam of Sudan to win the title in the girls’ discipline.
