Junior national lawn tennis player Vadeanand Resaul retained his under-14 crown at the seventh Bakewell Junior Open tournament after defeating Wayne Barker in the final Thursday evening at the Le Ressouvenir tennis facility courts. 

Resaul, who recently toured Trinidad and Tobago and Antigua to participate in two junior tournaments, looked sharp and clinical with his serves to take the final 4/0, 4/1. 

Saskia Persaud duly copped the girls U 14 title by accounting for Reshida Hardy 2/4, 5/3, 10/7 in a hard-fought final. 

The other final completed saw Paula Kalekyezi taking the girls U12 title by defeating Menikshi Jaikisson 4/0, 4/1.
