MahaOpen ATP Challenger: Sultanov, Rodionov Upset Seeds; Wildcards Dhamne, Shah Go Down
Maharashtra State Lawn Tennis Association: Indian interest in the singles section fizzled out as wildcards and young Indian players Manas Dhamne and Aryan Shah went down in the opening round of the MahaOpen ATP Challenger 100 Men’s Tennis Championship here on Tuesday. Meanwhile, unseeded Khumoyun Sultanov of Uzbekistan and Jurij Rodionov of Austria pulled off upsets against seeded players in the first round.
The event is being organised by the Maharashtra State Lawn Tennis Association (MSLTA) in association with the Department of Sports and Youth Services Govt of Maharashtra at the Balewadi Sports Complex here.
The 19-year-old Aryan Shah, who was awarded a main draw wildcard gave it his best but could not make an impact against sixth-seeded and 153-ranked Brandon Holt of the USA. Holt is the son of the legendary US tennis star of yesteryears. Tracy Austin played some solid tennis from the baseline to register a 6-2, 6-2 win against Aryan Shah in 1 hour and 12 minutes.
