Published Wed 13 Mar 2024
The 2024 Croydon Masters Junior/Senior/Veterans Open took place last weekend and what a weekend it was.
With the scorching temperatures, multiple events had to be cancelled for safety however this didn’t stop the competition from heating up.
"We had 3 hot days of competition over the Labour Day Long Weekend. We would like to thank the players, coaches and parents for their support when we had to cancel the doubles and divisional events due to the hot weather" stated Croydon Board Member Greg Bristowe.
Dillon Chambers (Croydon) and Sanaya Buddhadasa (Loops) won their first Croydon Masters Singles titles in the Senior Open, Sanaya, along with Lucas Lum won the Under 19 Singles titles in the Junior Open, whilst Craig Carter (Coburg) and Lydia Liu (Croydon) won the Over 30s at the Veterans.
