National champion for 3 consecutive years
The 2025 National Tennis Championship officially ended with the finals on October 19 at the stadium in Phan Thiet (Lam Dong).
The final match of the men's singles event took place excitingly between Vu Ha Minh Duc (AP Sports Club) and Nguyen Van Phuong (Army). Although his senior Nguyen Van Phuong is an experienced player, Vu Ha Minh Duc still knows how to dominate on the field.
After 2 competing sets, Vu Ha Minh Duc took the victory with a score of 2-0 (6-1, 75) The results help player Vu Ha Minh Duc maintain his position as the No. 1 male singles player in professional tennis in Vietnam at the moment. In 2023 and 2024, this tennis player won gold medals in the men's singles event.
Before the tournament took place, Vu Ha Minh Duc shared: "I will be determined to achieve the best result in accordance with my performance". Closing the 2025 National Tennis Championship, Vu Ha Minh Duc personally confidently competed and won a double gold medal, surpassing expectations. In addition to the men's singles championship, the tennis player won an additional gold medal in the men's doubles when paired with his teammate Truong Thanh Vinh.
This year, Vu Ha Minh Duc is 22 years old. However, the tennis player's professional bravery was demonstrated in 3 consecutive men's singles events at the National Championship.
The hope of the 33rd SEA Games for Vietnamese tennis
The tennis department (Vietnam Department of Physical Education and Sports) and the Vietnam Tennis Federation have confirmed that the results of the 2025 National Championship are one of the important professional measures to help managers select athletes to participate in the 33rd SEA Games.
Former No. 1 tennis player in Vietnam, Ly Hoang Nam, did not compete in the 2025 National Championship. At this time, Ly Hoang Nam had focused on pickleball. Therefore, the reigning national champion Vu Ha Minh Duc is sure to have a place to participate in the 33rd SEA Games in December this year.
Vu Ha Minh Duc's domestic competition achievements are the basis for experts to recognize the tennis player as the hope to achieve success for the Vietnam Tennis Team in the men's singles event at the 33rd SEA Games.
2 years ago, Ly Hoang Nam entered the men's singles final of the 32nd SEA Games in 2023 in Cambodia but only won the runner-up position. If Vu Ha Minh Duc achieves his best form, the chance to make it to the final tray at the 33rd SEA Games is completely feasible.
The 2025 National Tennis Championship closed on October 19. In addition to the men's singles and men's doubles, the Organizing Committee also recognized the women's singles championship belonging to Tran Thuy Thanh Truc (Ho Chi Minh City), the women's doubles belonging to Ngo Hong Hanh, Phan Diem Quynh (Army) and the mixed doubles, Le Trung Tinh, Phan Diem Quynh. The tournament has a prize fund of 500 million VND.
