Karman Kaur Thandi Secures A Place In French Open Singles Qualifying Draw
Karman Kaur Thandi: Roundglass Tennis Academy athlete Karman Kaur Thandi has qualified for the women's singles qualifying draw at the French Open (Roland Garros), which began on Monday. She will compete against Harmony Tan in the first qualifying round tomorrow. Both players are unseeded in the draw.
Karman secured her place in the elite qualification draw thanks to her Protected Ranking (PR) of 238, which placed her 119th on the official entry list. The Protected Ranking system enables players to re-enter top-tier tournaments after a long injury break, helping the former India number 1 regain her position among the world's best.
Her strong return to the Grand Slam stage marks a significant milestone for the sport in the country, ending India’s recent absence from Grand Slam singles. Facing a world-class field, she aims to advance confidently into the tournament's main draw.
