The Guyanese duo defeated Barbadians Sarrayah Yearwood and Dominic Wilson in straight sets (11-9, 11-6) to add another gold medal to their haul.
Michael Alphonso Jr. and Mohryan Baksh narrowly missed out on Boys’ Doubles gold, falling to Barbados in a close encounter (4-11, 11-9, 11-9). Despite a valiant comeback in the second set, the Barbadians managed to snatch victory in the third.
Guyana currently sits in second place with 12 points heading into the crucial team championships scheduled from Thursday to Saturday. Barbados holds the top spot with 14 points.
