With a series of strong wins, including over Spain’s Manuel Cano and Germany’s Casper Gausepohl, Sebatindira continues to shine, positioning himself as a serious contender in the sport. He is to face Tim Escudier from France in the Quarterfinals today, Tuesday night.
Sebatindira’s rapid rise, including his success in Portugal and his consistent improvement in the U11 and U13 categories, reflects his dedication and strong technical development, particularly in arm reach and forehand attacks.
His upcoming participation in the WTT Youth Contender Havirov 2025 in the Czech Republic from March 13th to 16th, along with Coach Alvin Katumba, is another exciting opportunity for him to further his ranking and showcase his talents.
