Tomas Setodji confident of winning McDan championshiop top prize

Men’s top seed Tomas Setodji has expressed his optimism of winning the top prize of the ongoing 2017 McDan Tennis Open championship.

The France-based Togolese annihilated Ghana’s Kwabena Ofosu Bamfo 6-1, 6-1 in his opening match on Tuesday.

And despite targeting the ultimate prize he is wary of the other players.

“I know any player can win the tournament but personally, I came here to win,” said the France-based Togolese star in an interview with the Graphic Sports.

“Everyone feels a bit of pressure in sports and I am used to that, but the pressure I feel is not from being the top seed. I don’t know who I am going to play against.

“I have to go to Nigeria after the tournament for another championship, so it will be good if I win because I will use the money to fund that trip as well as my tennis career.”

The winner of the competition will take home $3,000.
