Sounds good. Off to the Asian challengers thread.

Okay, locking the thread. Will open if Tejasvi somehow proves to us that she deserves a thread (like winning an ITF pro title or junior J500)

Diya Chaudhary (IND,747) could not upset the 2nd seed Lamiss Houas (TUN,644) in the J60 final in Accra... 46 64 26 loss to the Tunisian who is a year older at 16. This finishes Diya's excellent run in Ghana with an 18-2 record, two titles and two runner-up finishes. She will now move up to right aro...

At the ATP Challenger 125 in Hanzhou, China (Hard): [R1] (ALT) Ramkumar Ramanathan (IND,332) vs Illya Marchenko (UKR,316) Marchenko was top-50 at one time but at age 37, he is no longer what he once was. Since the Taipei challenger final in May, he has gone 0-5 in his matches (losses to players rank...

Shall we kill this thread, then? Retire the thread? Not sure, as we have never done that for any player... Age cheating is serious. It gets proven later. In her case, it seems to have been proven, but I am willing to give her a couple more years to see if she has it in her to do well in the pro leve...

[Q1] (3) Mukund Sasikumar (IND,405) vs Zura Tkemaladze (GEO,734)

RamK has made the Hangzhou challenger 125 draw as an ALT !!

Mukund is in the qualies as the third seed. If he makes it in, we can start a tournament thread. Or maybe we should just start a thread, as Rithvik/Arjun are in the doubles main draw.

I hear that Kriish Tyagi won the J200 in Fergana, but haven't seen the score yet.

How about that? The India junior #1 wins his best title yet abroad, and the #2 Rethin Senthilkumar goes and wins the national senior championships. Great stuff today!

Here is the web page for all the results in the u16, u18, seniors, qualies, etc - Fenesta Nationals 2024 ... They have not updated the draws with today's finals results as of now.

Krisha Mahendran (IND,157) went down in the SF at the J200 in Miki, Japan today, to the 6th seed, Ava Beck (AUS,148), 36 63 26... Krisha and Ada Kumru (TUR) beat the Australian pair, Elizabeth Ivanov and Sarah Mildren, 63 63 to win the doubles title there though. The points should be enough to move ...

Championship Finals: [F] (LL) Rethin Pranav Senthilkumar d. Nitin Kumar Sinha, 64 26 62 [F] (1) Vaidehi Chaudhari d. Maaya Rajeshwaran, 63 63 What a terrific run by 17 year old Lucky Loser Rethi!! ... And what a show by the 15 year old, Maaya!! This actually turned out to be a very interesting Fenes...

Sahaja is expected back in California next week for the W35 at Bakersfield (Oct 7th). I thought she might stay two weeks in Minnesota, but I guess Harsh Mankad feels that she is just fine to play now and that he can call her back up to Minnesota as and when needed. She is in the qualifying list (wil...

Well, we will stick to this thread for next week too. Sahaja will be back in California on Sunday after a week of coaching sessions under Harsh Mankad, and will play the Bakersfield W35 next week. So we will have two players next week too in the California W35 swing. Sahaja is expected to be the 5th...

Diya Chaudhary took her run in Accra to 18-1 today, as she reached another final at the J60 there. She upset the top seed Sasha Natalie Chimedza (ZIM,325) by a 64 63 score to reach her 4th consecutive final in the J30/J30/J60/J60 sequence in Accra. Quite an amazin show Seeds upset by Diya in these 4...
