Good service: Raguin's star is on the rise

Rising tennis star, Ntungamili Raguin, has always had a genuine love for the sport, which developed as early as six years, his father has said.

Raguin is on local sport fans' lips following a historic debut at the Australian Open Junior Championships this week, becoming the first Motswana tennis player to feature at a grand slam. The 17-year-old rose from the Francistown School of Tennis, pioneered by his father, Dominique Raguin. As Raguin made history in Australia, Dominique revealed that his son has always had a genuine love for tennis.

"Very early on, around age six, when he started travelling to Zimbabwe with teammates from the Francistown School of Tennis, it was obvious," Dominique told MmegiSport yesterday (Thursday).
