The latest victory comes after Ogunsakin’s remarkable Wimbledon singles campaign ended in the first round. Despite losing a closely fought three-set match to Britain’s Oliver Page, the 17-year-old became the first Nigerian in 36 years to compete in the Wimbledon singles draw and the country’s first singles representative at any Grand Slam tournament in more than a decade.
