Australian Open 2024: Sumit Nagal goes down fighting in second round against Juncheng Shang of China

India TV News  

India's only hope in the men's singles of the ongoing Australian Open 2024, Sumit Nagal went down fighting in the second round at the hands of China's Juncheng Shang by 6-2, 3-6, 5-7 and 4-6. Just like the first round, a victory for Sumit against Shang would have assured him a place in history as he would have become the first Indian men's singles player since Leander Paes in 1998 to advance to the third round of a Grand Slam. A loss in the third set landed a lethal blow to Sumit's chances of making a comeback and that's what it eventually turned out to be as Shang bagged the fourth set and the game. The 20-year-old Spaniard won the first set 6-4 before Sonego came back from behind to claim the second one 7-6 in a tie breaker.
