The Cairns International Pro Tour hits the halfway mark, with the Week 1 Semi-Finals and the Doubles Finals concluding today, leading an exciting weekend of tennis at the Cairns International Tennis Centre with the Singles Final tomorrow, Sunday 6 October.

Townsville’s Lizette Cabrera will face rising star Talia Gibson in the Women’s Singles Final. Both players showcased their best form in the Semi-Finals, with Cabrera defeating Maddison Inglis in straight sets 6-3, 6-4, and Gibson overcoming Monique Barry 6-3, 6-3.

On the Men’s side, top seed Rio Noguchi will take on Queensland’s Blake Ellis. Noguchi has been a dominant force throughout the tournament, while Ellis has shown grit and determination, especially in today’s efforts in Singles, achieving a tight three sets victory before backing up for the Doubles Final.

The Women’s Doubles Finals saw top seeds Petra Hule and Alana Parnaby claim the Women’s Doubles title with a 6-2, 6-2 victory over Mia Horvit and Tenika McGiffin. On the Men’s side, Matt Hulme and James Watt lifted the trophy following their win over Blake Ellis and Joshua Charlton in a match that ebbed and flowed and could have landed either way right up to the nail-biting end.

Qualifying for Week 2 of the tournament will also be kicking off tomorrow from 10am ahead of another exciting week of tennis in Far North Queensland.
