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.

"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).
