GHANA native Vielibo Choka is among the top guns to win the Suva Tennis Association Championship at Victoria Courts today.

Choka, who is on a three-year tennis contract in the country, said he wanted to enjoy his time in the capital city.

The elder brother of Ghana international boxer Joseph Kwadjo said he would try his best to win the tournament.

"I'm just here to have fun. If I win the tournament, then that's a bonus for me."

Unlike his younger brother, Choka said his interest is in tennis and music.

The 37-year-old, a Disc Jockey (DJ) at Traps night club, said playing tennis helped him maintain his health and fitness.

He said there were other members of the family who played different sports.

"I love playing tennis. I'm not tough like my brother to box, but I believe my interest is with tennis and music," he said.

"We come from a sporting family. I've found tennis as one of the best sports to play. It helps me maintain my health and fitness. It's a long game but I've enjoyed it since I first played it 10 years ago," he said.

The Bank of Baroda-sponsored championship continues today.
