Mumbai Open WTA: Indian challengers Shrivalli Bhamidipaty and Zeel Desai put on a fantastic show, causing major upsets in first-round qualifying matches of the Mumbai Open WTA 125K event, as top-level tennis returned to the Maharashtra capital after a hiatus of six years.
The 22-year-old Indian Shrivalli making her debut on the WTA Tour showed remarkable poise and confidence as she came from behind to knockout second seed Valentini Grammatikopoulou from Greece winning in straight sets in the Mumbai Open on Centre Court at the Cricket Club of India on Saturday.
The 26-year-old 117th-ranked Greek player started powerfully and raced to a 3-1 lead. But Shrivalli, the Indian National champion in both singles and doubles, showed tremendous resilience and won five games in succession to wrap up the first set.
