Bengaluru Open Challenger: Yunseong Chung-Yu Hsiou Hsu clinch doubles title

Bengaluru: Yunseong Chung and Yu Hsiou Hsu clinched the doubles title in the Bengaluru Open despite a strong resistance offered by Indian pair of Anirudh Chandrasekhar and N Vijay Sundar Prashanth in the final on Saturday. Earlier in the singles, Max Purcell placed himself in line to win a second ATP Challenger title within a week when he marched into the final. Purcell, the defending Wimbledon doubles champion, made a bright start to the match, bringing up a break in the very first game and he did not let the advantage slip for the remaining part of the first set. The Aussie had a golden chance to close out the match in the second set itself while serving on the back of a 5-4 lead but the Serbian broke back to make it 5-5.
