Treesa-Gayatri Advances At US Open, Rounak Chouhan Enters Main Draw
The Commonwealth Games: India’s women’s doubles pair of Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand made a winning start to their campaign at the US Open 2026 badminton tournament, battling past Spain’s Paula López and Lucía Rodríguez to reach the second round on Wednesday.
The Commonwealth Games medallists, ranked 58th in the world currently, registered a hard-fought 21-12, 14-21, 21-13 victory at the Titan Gym in California to enter the pre-quarterfinals of the BWF Super 300 event. Treesa and Gayatri looked in control after comfortably taking the opener, but the Spanish pair fought back hard to force a decider.
But the Indian pair found their touch in the third game and ended with a dominant display to clinch victory. The tournament is another step in the comeback trail of the duo, with Treesa returning to competition at the Indonesia Open earlier this month after a three-month rehabilitation period owing to injury.
