Oly Ankita raina showed some strength before losing to the japanese in 3 sets.

lets hope pooja gains her game rite here.

[sameerph]

These are the matchups for Indians in main draw this week-

[R1] Sanaa BHAMBRI (IND,553) Vs (Q) Yumi MIYAZAKI (JPN,783)
[R1] Rushmi CHAKRAVARTHI (IND) Vs (Q)Maya KATO (JPN,735)
[R1] (2) Poojashree VENKATESHA (IND) Vs (WC) Tanaporn THONGSING (THA,NR)

[Raja Desale]

Poojashree and Sana WON but Rushmi LOST

[sameerph]

At $10K Pattaya

[R1] Sanaa BHAMBRI (IND,578) d. (Q) Yumi MIYAZAKI (JPN,783) 61 64
[R1] Rushmi CHAKRAVARTHI (IND,580) l. (Q)Maya KATO (JPN,735) 46 46
[R1] (2) Poojashree VENKATESHA (IND,390) d. (WC) Tanaporn THONGSING (THA,NR) 63 61

Next,

[R2] Sanaa BHAMBRI (IND,578) v. (7) Sakiko SHIMIZU (JPN,467)
[R2] (2) Poojashree VENKATESHA (IND,390) v. Peangthan PLIPHUECH (THA,972)

[PKBasu]

Good to see Sanaa win against a foreign player comprehensively. Best of luck to her and Poojashree in R2!

[jaydeep]

Another disappointing end for Indian players.

At $10K Thailand Womens Futures, Pattaya

[R2] Sanaa BHAMBRI (IND,578) l (7) Sakiko SHIMIZU (JPN,467) 36 16
[R2] (2) Poojashree VENKATESHA (IND,390) l Peangthan PLIPHUECH (THA,972) 26 26

[sameerph]

Again 7 Indian players played in the qualifying ( Ankita Raina, Sweta Solanki , Rashmi Teltumbde, Sheetjal Goutam, Ashwarya Shrivastava, Tavni Shah, Treta Bhattacharya ) but none could win even a match against non Indian opponents. Only Ashwarya won against Sheetal but then prompty lost in next round against a foreign opponent. Things looking bleak in womens side & not having any tournamnets in India is hurting these girls even more.

So, at $ 10K Thailand, Hatyai

Main draw -

[R1] (5) VENKATESHA, Poojashree (IND,390) v. GABUEVA, Angelina (RUS,648)
[R1] CHAKRAVARTHI, Rushmi (IND,580) v. WONGTEANCHAI, Varatchaya (THA,426)

[sameerph]

At $ 10K Thailand, Hatyai

Main draw -

[R1] (5) VENKATESHA, Poojashree (IND,390) l. GABUEVA, Angelina (RUS,648) 46 64 60
[R1] CHAKRAVARTHI, Rushmi (IND,580) d. WONGTEANCHAI, Varatchaya (THA,426) 46 64 36

So, Rushmi wins but Poojashree's disappointing form continues.

Next,
[R2] CHAKRAVARTHI, Rushmi (IND,580) v. (7) -DE LATTRE, Magali (POR,409)

[PKBasu]

Poojashree seems to be in a very serious slump. I wonder what has gone wrong with her...

[bujilover]

Rushmi gave a gud fight before losing to 7th seed in her 2nd rd match today.

But she s n semis of doubles.

[gbelday]

I saw a post elsewhere that Poojashree won the doubles title. I haven't looked up the details though.
