Guyana off to shaky start in men and women singles

2024 Caribbean Table Tennis Championship

Guyana commenced the individual segment of the 2024 ITTF Caribbean Championship on a poor note, as they recorded five defeats, with only Shemar Britton registering a victory yesterday in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

Britton defeated Aruba’s Shaofeng Xie 11-7, 11-2, 11-5 to commence his individual campaign. However, five of his teammates lost in their respective opening matches. In the men’s section, Joel Alleyne lost to Oscar Birriel of Puerto Rico 4-11, 8-11, 3-11, while Elishaba Johnson went down to the Dominican Republic’s Abit Tejada 4-11, 6-11, 3-11.
