HE IS THE HOTTEST young road tennis player in the country and emphasised that claim over the weekend at the Springer Memorial School by capturing the 21 and Under title in the National Sports Council’s Inter-Parish championship.

Emar Edwards, just 17, impressed all and sundry with a ruthless performance in the final, with a 21-9, 21-12 blowout of Dario Hinds.

He has indicated that he will play another year in the 21-and-under but he wants to improve his game towards the goal of becoming one of the island’s best in two years or less.

A product of Combermere and St George school, Edwards earned $4 000 and enhanced his reptuation as a star of the future. (MK)
