Kenya’s tennis teenage sensation Angela Okutoyi is set to compete for another doubles title final after she progressed to the J1 Repentin final alongside Polish partner Malwina Rowinska.

Both progressed to the final in Canada without breaking a sweat, after being handed a walkover as their opponents Canadians Ellie Daniels and Alexia Jacobs decided to travel early for the US Open.

The tournament in Canada will act as a warm up for the Junior US Open and Okutoyi who is in the Main Draw at Flashing Meadows will be expected to travel after the final.

Okutoyi and her Polish partner were handed the walkover in the first round, before playing against the Canadian duo of Eliana Kook and Anna-Raphaelle Serghi 6-4, 6-2 in the second round.

They continued their superior run in the quarters where they overpowered top players Irina Balus and Nikola Daubnerova from Slovakia by straight sets of 6-4, 6-4.

The 18-year old Wimbledon Doubles champion wasn’t as lucky in the singles as she fell narrowly to Ela Nala Milic of Slovakia 7-6, 6-4.

The final action is set for Friday night, after which she will fly for the US Open where she is the main draw at Flushing Meadows.
