At $50K Kolkata Challenger, India
[SF] (2) Somdev Devvarman (IND,100) l (3) Evegeny Donskoy (RUS,127) 63 57 26
Doubles Final
(WC) Saketh Myneni (IND)/ Sanam Singh (IND) bt (WC) Divij Sharan (IND)/ Vishnu Vardhan (IND) 63 36 10-4
Yet again Buji struck by challenger semi finals jinx as he failed to cross it at Kolkata also ... After 2010 Buji failed to cross semi-final stage in challengers but I m hoping it will change in next week at big Delhi challenger.
In first set Buji take early break to lead 4-2 and kept that break advantage for winning the set ... In second set Donskoy broke Buji in 4th game to lead 3-1 but Buji immediately broke him in next game to brought set on serve, 2-3 ... Donskoy again broke Buji in in 6th game to lead 4-2 ... This time also Buji broke in next game to back on serve 3-4 ... Donskoy broke Buji on love in 12th game to won this set ... After losing second set Buji lost steam from his game and Donskoy take full advantage of it ... Donskoy dominated third set set, he broke Buji in 4th and 8th games for winning it comfortably.
Saketh-Sanam lifted their first challenger title beating Vishnu-Divij in match tie-break ... Sanam-Saketh controlled first set and were up 5-2 to won it with keeping advantage ... In second set also Saketh-Sanam were break up at 2-1 but Divij-Vishnu used their experience and fought back ... They won 5 games from next 6 games and in that they broke Saketh-Sanam twice to take the final in match tie-break ... But this time Divij-Vishnu failed to kept momentum and other hand Saketh-Sanam played almost perfect match tie-break and won it comfortably ... Congrats to both wild card pairs for excellent win.
