HONGKONG WINS 4-1 Saigon Pair's Spectacular Display In Doubles Match

By "RECORDER"

Hongkong beat Saigon by four matches to one in the Interport Tennis match, played on Davis Cup lines, concluded yesterday at the HKCC, winning both the remaining two singles and the doubles

encounter.

The afternoon started with Tsui Wal-pul beating Duong, the Saigon No. 2 by a score of 1-6, 6-3, 6-3. Then Ip Koon-hung repeated his hardcourt victory over Saigon's No. 1, Van Sau, by a score of 1-6, 6-3, 6-0, the evening concluding with a doubles victory In which Ip & W. C. Choy beat the Saigon pair 5-7, 6-4, 6.4.

'The doubles match was a sparkling affair and it seemed in its early stages that the Saigon pair had finally found the type of tactics that would beat the Hongkong opposition.
