Good couple of wins by Shubhankar Dey in qualifying for his first super series tournament. There is a bit of gap between our top 7 mens singles players who are all in top 50 and the next rung of players. Hopefully, Shubhankar will bridge that gap soon.

The person before Subhankar is at #46 and the person after is #80. So, I guess to bridge the gap, Subhankar needs to get to #63. I think he is currently #74 or so. If he keeps playing well, this is doable in the near future.

What a win for Saina.One can never write her off, not yet. Other than that the results were disappointing. All our doubles pairs getting knocked out first round is bad. I am beginning to expect something from our doubles pairs these days.
