Re: Divij Sharan / Purav Raja (pair) thread ...

Post by bujilover »

I searched if Purav has a player thread (from my phone) but couldn’t find it.

Purav and M Demoliner are seeded #1 at the Ecuador Open.

Moved this to Purav's thread. Quite surprising that Leander is not playing at Quito. It looks like he will continue at US challengers.

For this week, Purav has got a very good partner though who is ranked 43 in the world and it looks like a weak draw at Quito with Purav-Demoliner being top seeds. Hope they make most of it.

Except for the great show at Australian open along with Leander, it has been downhill for Purav this year so far. I thought this could be a good partnership for him with his old partner who has now risen to top 40. But, not to be. Needs to find some wins soon to maintain his rankings.
