Fenesta Open National Tennis Championship: Divya Bhardwaj of Gujarat and Maharashtra's Akanksha Nitture moved to the second round of the ongoing 30th Fenesta Open National Tennis Championship in the women's singles category at the DLTA Complex here on Tuesday.
Divya, who entered the main draw after coming through the qualifying round, continued her winning run by defeating third seed Pooja Ingale of Maharashtra 6-3, 6-4 on a rain-affected day. The match began on an enthralling note, with the scores tied at 3-3 midway through the set before Divya reeled off three consecutive games to seize control.
The second set mirrored the first, with the scores level at 3-3 midway before Divya broke Pooja’s serve to take a 5-3 lead. The third seed then held a game with a sublime display around the net, but could not stop Divya from clinching her sixth game and advancing to the next round of the tournament.
