ITF J300: Maaya Topples 4th Seed Kumru On Day 2; Top Seed Konstantinova Also Ousted
Hailing from Coimbatore, Maaya has been making good progress of late and she underlined her growth with a sensational 6-1, 7-6(1) win over the fourth seed from Turkiye in the opening round at the Delhi Lawn Tennis Association (DLTA) Complex. The 15-year-old Maaya is ranked 139 in the world and recently joined the Rafael Nadal Academy. The ranking gulf was wide between the two players but Maaya's court coverage and shot selection stood out as she withstood a strong fightback from her experienced rival in the second round.
Maaya thus joined compatriots Rishitha Reddy Basireddy and Aishwarya Jadhav in the singles pre-quarterfinals. Konstantinova was one of the strong contenders but Naito, who is not ranked even in top-400, created a huge upset by beating her fancied rival 6-3 6-1.
