With 182 entrants from across the country, along with their coaches, parents, siblings and more, the atmosphere at the Australian Junior Championships over the past two days has been electric. Western Australian talent from Broome in the north, to Esperance in the south, have fought hard against the rest of the country. Top seeded juniors in all divisions sailed through day one before some mixed results on day two.
In the U19 boys semi-final, Oscar Curtis took out Greg Chan in straight games in 26 minutes, progressing to the GF against QLD’s Luke Eyles. In the U17 boys, Daniel Marsh surpassed his 9/16 placement, powering through to his respective GF against NSW’s William Slade who defeated top seed, NSW’s Thomas Scott.
