Uganda top tennis players David Oringa and Duncan Mugabe, will renew their rivalry this Saturday in an exhibition tie at center court at Lugogo tennis club as they relaunch their facility.

Mugabe, has an edge over his club-mate having beaten him last year in one of their tennis clashes in April however Oringa will be seeking revenge in this exhibition game that has been organised by Lugogo tennis club.

“The two players will be playing a shorter version of the game which is best of 19 games,” Victor Drile, the organiser of the tournament said in a statement. “The tournament is just to relaunch the place and we just want the players to enjoy the moment for them to brag.”

Mugabe beat Oringa in a gruelling game last year which took 3 hours and 50 minutes with he coming on top with score of 6-7(10-8)6-3,6-4.

The exhibition will be a perfect build-up for Mugabe who will be battling Uganda Tennis Association Chairman Cedric Babu, next month in a highly anticipated game.
