^^^Not really. He is going to turn 22 and almost never beats anyone in the top 500. Also, his results seem worse this year compared to last year, so hard to make the case that he is improving.

He can turn it around at some point, but he is far less promising than Manas and Aryan right now.

His ...

While I am happy for the likes of Vishnu or SidR to get some wins, they are very low ceiling players at this stage of their careers, so hard to get too excited about their wins.

Forgot Karan Singh!!

RamK going down hill with age. His grit and determination helped him make one more come back. He just lost his touch in between. But now he should focus on doubles.



Let's face it, he is done in singles. He will stay in this range and then slide out.
As you say better to switch to doubles ...

RamK is down 46 22 to Facundo Juarez (ITA,486)...
Got broken at 30-40 to 5-6 but saved a 40-30 MP and broke back to 46 66... TB starting...
Was up a minibreak at 1-0 and 3-1, but then lost 6 points in a row. :(

At the Challenger 75 in Murcia, Spain (Clay)

[Q1] (12) Ramkumar Ramanathan (IND,451 ...

Sumit Nagal's match will be on Centre Court tomorrow approx 8:30 pm IST maybe!!

So, Ramkumar Ramanathan will be playing Murcia Challenger Qualies!!
He will be up against Facundo Juarez in QR1. Ramanathan will be playing clay challengers for the 1st time since 2023!!

Yes, looking at his current form I would be happy he manages to stay within 150 after all those points fall off, let alone go back to top 100.

Sumit Nagal will face the Wildcard Pablo Llamas Ruiz in the first round. Sumit has a good draw, to be honest!

So, Sumit will be back next week playing on European Clay.

This looks like his schedule for next 3 weeks-

March 17- Murcia Challenger 75- will be a seed
March 24- Naples Challenger 125
March 31- Marrakech ATP 125 qualies - will be a seed

The week after this is big Monte Carlo ATP masters where ...

Karan is injured. I won't be surprised if Eqbal upsets him, but hopefully, Karan will pull it off!!

5 Indians in the singles QF at Chandigarh, including several with big upsets in the last-16 stage:

[R2] Karan Singh (IND, 488) d. Rohan Mehra (IND, 1724) 76(2) 36 61
[R2} Madhvin Kamath (IND, 2063) d. 8-Grigoriy Lomakin (KAZ, 858) 64 60. :notworthy:
[R2] Ishaque Eqbal (IND, 1051) d. Vishnu ...

I don't think Sumit would play if Rohit Rajpal remains captain. He'll give some reason and pull out.

He would play because you know if Sumit doesn't play this tie, I think he won't be eligible to play LA 2028 Olympics!!


On the other hand, he was one of the last to qualify for the Paris ...

Davis Cup ties are announced India takes on Switzerland in away tie .

So, Switzerland Players have
1) Alexander Ritschard
2) Jerome Kym
3) Dominic Stricker
4) Marc Andrea Huesler
All 4 of them are not ...

Beating Med is out of syllabus.
Let's hope he beats this Bu guy who is ranked 71.
Yeah Nishesh has no chance against Bu who can do well in slow-hard courts!! And Bu played a fantastic match against Michelsen in Acapulco and he lost a very close match!! I thought he might grab a set but couldn't ...
