13-year-old Jensi Dipakbhai Kanabar Shines With ITF J60 Guwahati Title
India’s rising tennis talent Jensi Dipakbhai Kanabar, just 13 years old, delivered a remarkable performance to clinch the ITF J60 Guwahati singles title—an under-18 tournament where she faced opponents up to four years older.
The Junagadh youngster has now won two titles in her first two ITF Junior events, maintaining an undefeated 11–0 record on the circuit.
Her run in Guwahati was particularly impressive, as she defeated two top-seeded 17-year-olds from Kazakhstan in back-to-back matches despite entering the tournament unseeded.
Semifinal:
Jensi Kanabar (🇮🇳, 1810) def. (2) Satima Toregen (🇰🇿, 321) — 6–4, 6–1
Final:
Jensi Kanabar (🇮🇳, 1810) def. (1) Albina Kakenova (🇰🇿, 207) — 6–4, 6–4
With this breakthrough victory, Jensi is projected to surge from No. 1810 to around No. 920 in the ITF Junior Rankings—an extraordinary leap for a player competing in only her second international junior event.
A name to watch in Indian tennis, Jensi Kanabar is quickly establishing herself as one of the brightest young prospects on the junior circuit.
