Re: China Challengers July-August 2018
I was wondering why Manish did not enter Indonesia Futures. Wise decision as he needs the CH-level exposure to learn more at a younger age. to our players.

Mukund had better start playing well again, soon, or we will start calling him Sasi again.

It wasn't a winnable first round match as predicted, as Arjun goes down easily in straight sets against a lower ranked Niesten.

Arjun and Moriya breeze through their first round winning in straight sets. Arjun Khade moves inside Top 200 up to a new CH of 193.
Up next in QF is a tough match again the higher ranked fourth seeds - Elgin/Shyla combine

Re: China Challengers July-August 2018
Awful singles loss for Arjun, against a player he should have beaten easily.
Doubles is where he continues to make progress...

Yes, doubles is certainly Arjun's thing. He is quite unpredictable in singles.

Re: China Challengers July-August 2018
At Jinan qualies , Mukund scores a straight sets win over his German opponent Sami Reinwen and SureshKumar needed 3 sets to overcome a similar ranked Japanese opponent to move into the R2.Sidharth Rawat is 5-6 down in his first round match against a 865 ranked Russian player.
As expected Ram is the Top Seed in the MD and faces a Finnish player Helliovora Harri in the opening round.
