Bengaluru Open 2024: India’s Sumit Nagal Enters Quarterfinals With Straight Sets Win
Karnataka State Lawn Tennis Association: Second-seed Sumit Nagal of India continued his sensational unbeaten run to enter the singles quarterfinals of the Bengaluru Open 2024, beating Hong Kong’s Coleman Wong in straight sets at the Karnataka State Lawn Tennis Association (KSLTA) Stadium here on Thursday. Nagal, who won the ATP Challenger title in Chennai last week, was in total control of the second-round clash on Centre Court, packing off Wong 6-2, 7-5 in an hour and 45 minutes.
The World No.98 Nagal quickly opened up a 3-1 lead in the opening set and then broke Wong once again to wrap up the set. Wong put up a better fight in the second set, breaking Nagal in the fifth game. But the Indian player responded by breaking back his opponent’s serve without dropping a single point immediately to draw level. He then made the most of his experience to keep the 19-year-old Hong Kong player at bay to close out the set and match four games later.
Nagal will now face fifth seed Adam Walton of Australia, who defeated Belgium’s Gauthier Onclin 6-2, 6-2 in the second round of the prestigious ATP Challenger event being organised by Karnataka State Lawn Tennis Association.
