The 15-year-old fourth seed defeated fellow Bengaluru player Aahida Singh 6-4, 6-2 in the girls’ singles final to cap an impressive week at the ITF junior tennis event.
Shreeniti then returned to the court alongside Riddhi Shinde in the girls’ doubles final and completed her double by defeating Zoha Qureshi and Deepthi Venkatesan 4-6, 6-2, 13-11 in a closely fought contest.
