Seun Ogunsakin Claims Second J200 Title in Cairo

Seun Ogunsakin, a teenage tennis player from Nigeria, won his second International Tennis Federation (ITF) J200 title of the year by defeating France's Matisse Martin with a score of 7-5, 6-3 in the boys' singles final held in Cairo, Egypt. This victory follows Ogunsakin's earlier success at another J200 tournament in the same city.

Victor Ochei, the president of the Nigeria Tennis Federation (NTF), congratulated Ogunsakin, calling his back-to-back wins a significant achievement for Nigerian tennis. Ochei noted that Ogunsakin's success reflects the growing competitiveness of Nigerian players in international junior tennis.

He linked this achievement to a resurgence in Nigerian tennis, highlighted by the promotion of the men's team to the Davis Cup World Group II and the women's team to the Billie Jean King Cup Europe/Africa Zone Group II in 2026. Ochei emphasized the NTF's commitment to grassroots development and securing more international opportunities for young talents.
