China ITF mens/ Womens circuit - June-July 2017

Post by sameerph »

Lots of mens and womens ITF tournaments to be played in China in June/July and few of our players are playing and few others may join later. So, this is a common thread for these tournaments.

On the mens side there will be 5 $25K tournaments staring from this week. In the first week, Prajnesh and KU are playing. Vishnu is set to join next week.

At $25K China F10 Futures, Kunshan

[R1] Karunuday SINGH (IND,814) vs. Xi QI (CHN,1319)

Prajnesh is thru to the final.

Next,

[F] (2) Prajnesh GUNNESWARAN (IND,256) vs. (1) Zhe LI (CHN,251)

Fabulous win in the final, after a thoroughly dominant week of tennis. Surely, Prajnesh shouldn't be playing Futures any longer!

[R2] (3) Prajnesh GUNNESWARAN (IND,259) d. Yecong HE (CHN,670) 6-1, 6-0

Takes less than an hour to win with a breadstick and a bagel.

A win here will take him to India #2 ahead of Yuki.

Yes, Prajnesh appears be in cracking form in this futures series going by the scorelines.

KU also came up with a nice upset win.

[R2] Karunuday SINGH (IND,806) d. (7) Xin GAO (CHN,544) 63 62

Vishnu plays his second round match tomorrow and if he wins he will run into Prajnesh.
