Winner of this year’s Men’s singles event at the Dala Hard Court tourney in Kano, Clifford Enosoregbe, is Nigeria’s number one male tennis player.
This much was disclosed to Pilot Sports by the country’s Chief Umpire, Seidu Isa.
Isa explained that Enosoregbe has garnered enough points from the two tournaments he featured in the country this year, and would be announced as the country’s number one player.
He said: “We do the rankings based on the tournaments that the players play in the country every year, and as it stands now, they had just two in 2013.
“Every player was ranked according to the number of points that he raked in during each national tournament, so they were deserved points”, the bronze-badged referee hinted.
