After two weeks of high-quality tennis and extreme heat, the ITF J30 Perth Junior International\u2019s wrapped up on Sunday.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

A total of 128 girls and boys competed across the two singles events including a further 90 players who entered into the qualifying draw to gain entry into both main draws.<\/p>\n

Of the 128 singles players, 116 were from Australia with competitors also from Malaysia, China, Singapore, Indonesia and Chile.<\/p>\n

West Australian junior talent was on display with 10 WA boys and 16 girls competing in the main singles draw of the J30 #1. In the J30 #2, 11 boys and 15 girls entered the main singles draw.<\/p>\n

In the J30 Perth Junior International #1, WA\u2019s Alice Stevens triumphed over fellow West Australian Tara Aleksic 6-3, 6-1 in the women\u2019s final. The number one seed Stevens raced through to the final in form, without dropping a set while it was a tougher battle for Aleksic twice coming from a set down through the rounds to reach the final.<\/p>\n

In the boy’s final, number one seed and West Australian Cam Burton defeated 14-year-old Victorian Ymerali Ibraimi 6-1, 6-3. Like Stevens, Burton went through the event without dropping a set.<\/p>\n

Both winners also backed it up in their respective doubles final with Cam Burton joining up with fellow West Australian Brendan Jayaprakash defeating WA\u2019s Marko Mrdak and Luka Vujacic 7-5, 6-3, while Alice Stevens teamed up with Ruby Ward defeating Joanne Lynn Hartono and Xiran Lan 6-1, 6-4.<\/p>\n

In the J30 Perth Junior International #2, Ymerali Ibraimi responded from his loss in the J30 Perth #1 final to defeat WA\u2019s Luka Vujacic 6-3, 6-1 in the boy’s singles final. This was Ibraimi\u2019s career-best result on the ITF Tennis World Junior Tour.<\/p>\n

In the girls singles final, Alice Stevens couldn\u2019t go back-to-back, going down to number one seed Zi ye Zhang from China in a tight 6-4, 6-4 battle.<\/p>\n

In the boy’s doubles, Cam Burton went back-to-back winning with new partner Connor McEvoy against Filip Fantasia and Ymerali Ibraimi 6-4, 6-1. After losing the J30 Perth #1 girls singles final, WA\u2019s Tara Aleksic claimed the girls doubles final with partner Nicola Schoeman, defeating Xiran Lan and Zi Ye Zhang 6-4, 6-3.<\/p>\n

Thank you to all the players, parents and coaches that embraced both events.<\/p>\n
