Chetan Anand, Jwala-Diju pair advance

New Delhi: Ace shuttler Chetan Anand and the mixed doubles pair of Jwala Gutta and V. Diju eased into the second round of the Denmark Open, even as compatriots Arvind Bhatt and Aditi Mutatkar crashed out of the Super Series event in Odense on Wednesday.

In the men’s singles category, National champion Chetan thumped Stefan Wojcikiewicz of Canada 21-6, 21-15 in just 25 minutes, while Jwala and Diju prevailed over Indonesian pair of Endang Nursugianti and Anggun Nugroho 21-15, 21-12 in the mixed doubles.

Arvind loses

However, Arvind squandered a lead to go down fighting against Muhammad Hafiz Hashim of Malaysia 21-18, 15-21, 19-21 in 48 minutes.

Anand Pawar was also shown the door by Malaysian Choong Hann Wong 17-21, 21-12, 21-18 in the opening round.

In the women’s singles, Aditi hit a low after a high in the Dutch Open Grand Prix, as Canadian Anna Rice got the better off the Indian 21-18, 21-15. — PTI
