Sunish, currently ranked two in India in the under-18 category played flawlessly for about one hour and fourteen minutes on the red clay court to drub Kazakhstan's Dostanbek Tashbulatov 6-2, 6-3.
In the final of girls singles, it was more of a one-sided affair as Belgium's 17-year-old Axana Mareen, seeded one in the draw, whitewashed India's Akanksha Bhan 6-1, 6-3.
Bhan, the winner of Under-18 in the 2016 Fenesta Nationals, could almost do nothing as she got overpowered by the stronger Mareen in a mere 55 minutes.
