Abhay, Chotrani Bow Out Of British Open Squash In Second Round
British Open: India's challenge in the men's draw of the British Open squash championships came to an end on Tuesday as Abhay Singh and Veer Chotrani suffered second-round defeats against higher-ranked opponents.
Abhay, ranked World No. 24, pushed Egyptian star Mohamad Zakaria hard before going down 9-11, 4-11, 11-7, 10-12 in a closely contested four-game encounter. The Indian fought back strongly after losing the opening two games, taking the third and threatening to force a decider before Zakaria held his nerve in a tense fourth game.
The defeat ended an encouraging campaign for Abhay, who had opened his tournament with a commanding straight-games victory over Colombia's Matias Knudsen. The Indian had looked in impressive touch in the first round, winning 11-8, 11-5, 11-4 to set up the clash against the world No. 8 Egyptian.
