Tembisa’s Bongani Dlamini on form at the Airports Company SA Strand Open
Bongani Dlamini, from Tembisa, hopes to capture the Airports Company South Africa Strand Open title.
He will be put to the test at the event, which will be held at the Strand Tennis Club, Cape Town, in October.
The lad from Tembisa seeded first in the quads draw and will seek to capture the title and continue the winning trend set at the Airports Company South Africa Soweto and Pretoria Opens.
Dlamini has been dominant in this division, claiming numerous titles on the local circuit.
His aim is to consolidate his position as the top quad player on the local wheelchair tennis circuit.
Dlamini’s task will not be made any easier by the looming presence of Groblersdal’s duo, Danny Mohlamonyane and Queen Nhlapo, who will be looking to quash Dlamini’s landslide winning record in the quad’s section.
Other enviable opponents in this division include Ronewa Mudzananani, from Vanda, and Fernando Gallant, from Port Elizabethan.
The Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) is the official sponsor of Wheelchair Tennis South Africa and the sport of wheelchair tennis.
Airports Company South Africa has contributed no less than R26-million to date and has committed to a continued investment in the sport as its flagship Corporate Social Investment programme.
