<\/a><\/p>\n

Colin Ramsey and Hye Jin Elliott continue to occupy their lofty perches atop the 2022-2023 Northern Mariana Islands Tennis Association men\u2019s and women\u2019s open rankings.<\/p>\n

Ramsey has swept the men\u2019s open singles titles of the four major tournaments in the NMITA calendar\u2014Tan Holdings Tennis Classic,\u00a0 SIS Student Council Tennis Tournament, Coconut Classic Tennis Tournament, and the Bridge Capital Tennis Classic\u2014for 4,000 points. He also got 250 points after teaming up with his brother Quentin and topping the men\u2019s open doubles for a total of 4,250 points in his bag.<\/p>\n

Tomas Abel and youngster David Kwon trail Colin Ramsey in the rankings with 2,650 points and 2,100 points, respectively.<\/p>\n

Elliott, meanwhile, proved to all in sundry that she\u2019s indeed the queen of the hardcourts by lording it over the women\u2019s open rankings with 4,000 points.<\/p>\n

The only tournament that escaped her grasp was the SIS tourney where she fell to fellow national tennis team member Serin Chung. She, however, claimed the tiaras of the Tan Holdings, Coconut Classic, and Bridge Capital tourney.<\/p>\n

Chung is second to Elliott in the women\u2019s open rankings with 3,300 points, while Hoo Wang closed out the Top 3 with 1,800.<\/p>\n

In the men\u2019s 4.0, Cody Shimizu is showing to be equally adept wearing tennis shoes as he on cleats by leading the rankings with 2,400 points that includes championships in the SIS and Bridge Capital events.<\/p>\n

Quintin Ramsey is second with 1,650 points, followed closely by the 1,600 points of John Kenneth Casauran.<\/p>\n

Hannah Chae, Irin Chung, Grace Choi, and Savita Sikkel are 1-2-3-4 in the women\u2019s 4.0 by virtue of their 1,000 points, 750 points, and 500 points (latter two are tied) in the doubles competition of the Tan Holdings tourney.<\/p>\n

Haoyang Song tops the men\u2019s 3.0 with 1,350 points, followed by Marlon Bercilla and Dev Bachani with 1,250 points, and 1,100 points, respectively.<\/p>\n

In the women\u2019s 3.0, Stella Choi so far has 1,000 points to pace her division with Hua Jin and Isa Nishitani tied in close proximity with 750 points each.<\/p>\n

In the women\u2019s 2.0, Michelle Park is atop the totem pole with 1,000 points, followed by Jalexia Rulona with 750 points and La Mee Lam and Jocelyn Paano at joint third with 500 points apiece.<\/p>\n

By virtue of topping the Tan Holdings, Coconut Classic, and Bridge Capital tourneys, Paul Jang is untouchable in the men\u2019s 40 with 3,000 points. John Bradley and Edwin Simbulan are a distant second and third place with 1,350 points and 1,300 points, respectively.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no change in the men\u2019s 50 as Dong Min Lee with 325 points and Ronnie Lacbayo, Roy Pangelinan, Jeff Race with 250 points occupy the Top 4 slots.<\/p>\n

Ditto in the women\u2019s 50 with Lydia Tan, Eunkyoung Lee, and Annie Lai in the Top 3 with 250 points, 200 points, and 150 points, respectively.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the same situation in the men\u2019s 60 with David Lai (1,250 points), Felix Rulona (938 points), and John Bradley (625 points) maintaining their rankings.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
