Another convincing winner was top seed Karan Malik of TN, who routed second seed Aadit Zaveri 10-8, 9-0, 9-2 for the boys under-15 title. Malik simply packed too many punches for Zaveri, making him look pedestrian at times. Aadit has emerged as a much improved player in the tournament. He beat Mahesh Mangaonkar quite comfortably in the semifinals. Mahesh Mangaonkar continued his domination of the Under-13 section, beating Caran Arora in three straight games. Raghav Mehrotra pocketed his second title when he upset Arjun Kochhar in three games in the Boys Under-11 event. Rajat Agarwal emerged as the latest Champion from Club Aquaria when he beat Jindal Academy's Sandeep Paswan convincingly for the Under-9 category. Rajat Agarwal was unseeded in the event as he has never reached higher rounds in any tournament earlier. Harita Omprakash took the Girls under-15 title defeating Dheeya Somaya. |
