00:00Aaron Wilson of Caranage Blasters taking on QPCC's Deron Douglas. It's worth
00:05taking a breather for this one. It was a marathon. Douglas has had a good season
00:10but would he cook today? Wilson knows his opponent and on a few occasions he
00:16showed just how he was going to win this match. It took concentration from both
00:20men and lots of it. Every serve had a new spin and the response needed to be
00:26equally precise. After Wilson took the first set 11-7, Douglas struck back 11-4
00:32but Wilson was willing to go one step further when need be. He took the third
00:37and fourth sets 11-5 and 11-8. Douglas was put in a must-win position and with
00:43his back against the wall he delivered 11-7.
00:48However the rising tide was too much and any fire of resistance was
00:59eventually put out. Wilson knew it for the fourth time. On the women's side
01:04Chloe Fraser came out as the top player with the main trophy.
01:08Imani Edwards-Taylor settling for second spot. Fraser spoke about the win.
01:15It's a great honor to me. This is my second against Imani since I was about 10 years and she was 13.
01:22I think we've grown and improved together and it's nice to see. She's returning to
01:27France but first? Just relax and get ready to go back to France. Not too much
01:32training or anything. Just spend time with family and friends and enjoy the
01:36rest of time in Trinidad. Sergio Dufour, TV6 Sport.
