Tennis PNG

In 2019 Abigail became the first Pacific Island woman to win a pro singles title which helped her return to the top 300 in the WTA rankings.

After spending the last couple of months adjusting to her new life as a family of three, Abigail is slowly but surely getting back on the tennis circuit. With her inclusion into the national team for the Mini Pacific Games, this could provide some leverage for her return to competitive tennis.

Being surrounded by a strong passionate tennis family, Abigail has the full support of everyone and is very happy with her progress so far.

Mera is of Gulf and New Ireland parentage and started playing the game as a young boy while the family was residing only a block away from the Boroko tennis courts. He picked up his first tennis racket and never looked back.

With only one spot yet to be filled in the PNG Men’s tennis team for the June Pacific Mini Games in Northern Marianas, four players are currently challenging each other in a 3-day round robin qualifier tournament at the Port Moresby Tennis Courts in Boroko.
