At US Open 2009, New York

[R2] Sania Mirza (IND)/ Daniel Nestor (Canada) l Carly Gullickson (USA)/ Travis Parrott (USA) 16 46

Junior
[R1] (1) Yuki Bhambri (IND,1) bt Jordan Cox (USA,38)

With this one-sided loss Sania's challenge got over in US Open ... She must be disappointed with her performance in this final grand slam of the year.

What a start for Yuki to dismissed this year's Junior Wimbledon finalist in the first round ... He literally thrashed his opponent with his improved game ... He broke Cox's serve twice in the first set and thrice in second set.

At 2009 FIVB Boys Youth Volleyball World Championship, Jesolo - Bassano del Grappa, Italy

For 7th Position
India bt Italy 26-28 25-23 25-21 25-16

So again we defeated host Italy to grab 7th position, I would luv if we finished on higher position as we had our chances in matches against Argentina and Spain ... But still creditable finish on 7th position, this finish was our second best result in u-17 World Championship after we finished on 2nd position in 2003 championship.
