Ramdhani siblings dominate competition

Priyanna Ramdhani and Ambika Ramraj in contest in the Female Singles

Narayan and Priyanna Ramdhani dominated the 2012 Guyana Olympic Association (GOA) Under-15 Junior Badminton tournament and were crowned the competition’s male and female Triple Crown winners.
The tournament concluded on Monday at the Queen’s College auditorium. In the female singles, Priyanna Ramdhani outclassed Ambika Ramraj in straight sets 21-7, 21-10.
Ramdhani was by far the star of the evening. She covered the court, and timed and placed her shots almost to perfection. It was evident that Ramraj was frustrated with the skills on the other side of the net.
Ramraj’s desperate attempts to fight her way back into the game were futile as she kept hitting the shuttle into the net and out of the court.
In the Male Singles, Narayan Ramdhani, like his sister, was too good for Cecil Abrams, thrashing him 21-12, 21-10. The match started with both players looking for the advantage as the momentum shifted back and forth. But minutes into the first set, Abrams found it hard to keep up with opponent who ran away with the rest of the game.
