ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER has starred in many Hollywood blockbusters. However, Shawn “Arnold Schwarzenegger” Spencer passed up a golden script to star in his own premier event when the Silver Hill Road Tennis Championship continued on Wednesday night at the Silver Hill courts in Christ Church.

With the creator of the event, Minister Stephen Lashley, enjoying a front row seat, the left-handed, six-foot-four Spencer threatened to terminate defending champion Julian “Michael Jackson” White before the country’s most successful player limped to a 18-21, 21-16, 21-18 victory.

After a humiliating loss in Sunday’s Monarch Of The Court final, White was under great pressure to show that he was not a declining star.

However. Spencer seized the moment to outshine his opponent with some crunching smashes and after the scores were tied at ten, the underrated star kept ahead of White to gain the early advantage.
