World Jr C’ships: Lalthazuala, Vennala K Register Easy Wins As India Make Strong Start
BWF World Junior Championships: Indian shuttlers kicked off their individual campaigns in the BWF World Junior Championships with an all-win record at the National Centre of Excellence here on Monday, as none of them were put under pressure in their respective matches.
Having helped the team bag a historic bronze medal in the team championships, the seeded Indian players had a bye in the opening round, while the others had to get their campaign going before the bigger challenges.
Lalthazuala Hmar was the first Indian in action and the Mizoram shuttler needed just 14 minutes to pack off Uganda’s Denis Mukasa 15-4, 15-4. Later in the day, Gnana Dattu TT took time to overcome his nerves before beating Milan Mesterhazy of Hungary 5-15, 15-7, 15-7 in boys’ singles while Asian junior championships bronze medallist Vennala K hammered Ireland’s Siofra Flynn 15-1, 15-6 in girls’ singles opening round.
