Gifted table tennis duo Jonathan Van Lange and Jasmine Billingy were class personified on Monday evening as they swept the boys and girls’ Under-15 and 18 categories at the conclusion of the Guyana Table Tennis Association (GTTA) Challenge at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall (CASH).
The 12-year-old Van Lange, who has been rampant in 2019, served his way to his fifth title. In the final of the boys’ Under-18 category, he overcame an animated Jamal Nicholas 3-1.
Nicholas who seemed intent to curtail Van Lange’s reign led the first set 9-5 but squandered a number of opportunities to close out the match and dropped it 12-10.
