At $25K ITF Women's Tennis Tournament 2016, Navi Mumbai, India

[R1] (WC) Snehadevi S REDDY (IND,546) l Noppawan LERTCHEEWAKARN (THA,418) 16 57
[R1] (WC) Rutuja BHOSALE (IND,UNR) bt (Q) Karman Kaur THANDI (IND,582) 62 46 62
[R1] Ankita RAINA (IND,271) bt (3) Conny PERRIN (SUI,181) 60 46 61

[R2] (WC) Rutuja BHOSALE (IND,NR) vs (8) Jia-Jing LU (CHN,259)
[R2] Ankita RAINA (IND,271) vs (Q) Na Ri KIM (KOR,446)

Superb upset win by Ankita over top-200 Swiss player Conny Perrin ... After comfortably winning the first set Ankita lost the second set but she recovered well for winning the final set dominantly ... Next she is facing Korean qualifier.

For me Rutuja's win over Karman is big upset considering Karman's recent performance but still much needed win for Rutuja ... Now hoping that she will build on this ... Next she is facing 8th seed Chinese opponent.
