Whanganui High School student Ruby McIntyre upstaged the veterans in the Whanganui Tennis Club Women's A-Grade Championships last weekend.

The Year 10 student took out the final with a super tie-breaker in her 6-3, 6-7 (10-8) win against Rachel Cronin.

McIntyre progressed to the finals with wins over Deb Munro, Jodie Munn and Dale Turner.

She has had a busy tennis season, competing in 50 singles matches in competitions throughout the North Island. Her record this season is 39 singles wins and 28 doubles wins.

This weekend, McIntyre leads the Whanganui Tennis Club team against Whanganui Collegiate School, Feilding High School and Paraparaumu in the CD Youth Tournament, followed up with the club doubles finals the following weekend.
