At $100K Granby Challenger, Canada

[R1] (3) Saketh Myneni (IND,150) l Andrey Golubev (KAZ,195) 16 36

Doubles
[R1] (3) Saketh Myneni (IND)/ Sanam Singh (IND) vs Hiroki Moriya (JPN)/ Yasutaka Uchiyama (JPN)

As I was predicted this wasn't a easy match for Saki against former top-50 Golubev ... But Wasn't expected this one-sided scoreline ... Saki failed to convert a single break point and other hand Golubev was returning comfortably on Saki's serve.

Saki is playing in the doubles with Sanam ... Hopefully Saki inject confidence in Sanam with few wins in the doubles.


At $125K Chengdu Challenger, China

[R1] Prajnesh Gunneswaran (IND,390) l (Q) Takuto Niki (JPN,509) 63 36 26

Though on paper Prajanesh should win this match but Niki is experienced and former top-300 player ... Niki got a chance after losing the first set and he took that opportunity as he won last two sets.

At $25K ITF Women's Tennis Tournament 2016, Nonthaburi, Thailand

[R1] Snehadevi S REDDY (IND,450) vs (1) Yana SIZIKOVA (RUS,357)

Doubles
[R1] Snehadevi S REDDY (IND)/ Natasha PALHA (IND) vs Pei-Chi LEE (TPE)/ Varunya WONGTEANCHAI (THA)

Snehadevi having tough match against top-seed ... Natasha lost in the final qualifying against experienced Ip ... Natasha and Snehadevi playing in the doubles.

[R1] (SE) Rishab AGARWAL (IND,965) vs (2) Antoine ESCOFFIER (FRA,477)

Not easy matches for our players ... Rishab defeated Escoffier last week but thus week will be more tougher .. Also experienced and former top-450 ranked Hyun-Woo Nam could be tricky one for Mohit Mayur.
