The centre, which seeks to train fast-rising tennis players from the region, was officially commissioned by the ITF President David Haggerty on Tuesday at Kasarani before opening the High Performance Centre at Upper Hill, Nairobi yesterday. Tergat, who graced the opening of the High Performance Centre where players will reside and take their studies, said the move by ITF to invest in tennis was in line with Nock’s commitment in developing sports in the country. He announced that his office had agreed to offer financial support to the just inaugurated High Performance Centre— the world. We thank the ITF president for opening both centres officially and offering financial assistance. As players, we are looking forward to exploit this chance fully and reward the ITF boss by getting positive results.”
