Thailand Open: India Crash Out As Treesa-Gayatri, Singles Stars Suffer Early Exits
The Thailand Open: India’s campaign at the Thailand Open 2025 came to a disappointing end on Thursday, as all remaining shuttlers, including top women’s doubles pair Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand, bowed out in the second round of the BWF Super 500 tournament at Bangkok’s Nimibutr Stadium.
Seeded third and ranked 10th in the world, Treesa and Gayatri were expected to spearhead India’s challenge in the absence of top singles stars. But despite a fighting start, the duo lost 20-22, 14-21 to Japan’s Rui Hirokami and Sayaka Hobara in a 53-minute contest.
The Indian pair pushed the first game to the wire, showing glimpses of their quality, but failed to convert crucial points. The Japanese pair, buoyed by their narrow win, asserted complete control in the second game to knock out the Indian contenders.
