Doubles
[F] Vishnu Vardhan (IND)/ Divij Sharan (IND) l Mao-Xin Gong (CHN)/ Zhe Li (CHN) 36 16

Creditable performance by Vishnu to reached in semis ... After losing first set Vishu tried hard to take it in tie-break before losing it ... This was his 10th match of the week so some tiredness must be there but I was really hoping he at least lift doubles title with Divij to make more memorable week for him ... But Chinese pair were too strong for them ... Still very good week for Vishnu, he reached in singles semis as an qualifier and doubles final with Divij as unseeded pair.
