This week, with each passing match, Quadre showed why she’s one of the very best players in the country. In the final today, she adequately demonstrated that with a near-perfect display to beat 2-time champion, Christie Agugbom in straight sets and claim her first CBN Open title.
In only 40 minutes, the wildcard trounced Agugbom 6-1, 6-0 to cap off what’s been a truly remarkable week for her in Abuja.
Oyinlomo Quadre claimed the title without dropping a set the entire tournament.
Like Serena Teluwo, Osariemen Airhunwhunde, Blessing Samuel and Blessing Anuna, Agugbom was left helpless by a devastating demonstration of power tennis from her young opponent.

The 16-year-old, who’s honing her skills at the High Performance Centre in Casablanca, Morocco, pockets N700,000 following this victory.
She had, on Friday, partnered with Mary Tenu-Michael to clinch the women’s doubles title.
