Facts have emerged on how Nigerian tennis sensation, Marylove Edwards, was a player/coach during one of the matches of Team Nigeria at the ongoing ITF/CAT AJC Qualifying series in Lome, Togo.

Edwards, ranked 551 in the world juniors, was seen in a video, doing the dab with one of her colleagues, as a way of celebrating the team’s recent victory against Ghana in the doubles event.

Coach Abel Ubiebi who led the team to the championship in Lome, was full of ecstasy when his players showed great sportsmanship after their win, and captured the moment on camera.

He would further reveal that he was very impressed with the youngster who was busy on the bench skippering and coaching her colleagues who were on court as she was not playing the doubles.
