India's star tennis player Sumit Nagal entered the second round of the Australian Open for the first time by defeating world number 27 Alexander Bublik of Kazakhstan 6-4, 6-2, 7-6. They have played in the main round of the Australian Open once more, but were knocked out in the first round, but this time they have reached the second round. This is no less than a big achievement for this young Indian player. He became the first Indian since Ramesh Krishnan (1989) to beat a seeded player in a Grand Slam tournament.
Nagal is the first Indian male player to reach the second round of singles since 2013. Somdev Devvarman made it to the second round in 2013. For the first time since 1989, an Indian player has defeated a seeded player in a singles match of the Australian Open. Ramesh Krishnan did it in 1989. He then defeated Sweden's Mats Wilander in the second round. Wilander was then the world's top player in the tennis rankings.
The 26-year-old Sumit Nagal will now take on another player in his second round match on January 18. This will be confirmed soon, as the first round matches are currently underway at the Australian Open. Sumit Nagal struggled on the court for a long time, but 2024 has been a good start for him. Apart from this Grand Slam, he will have the opportunity to participate in three more Grand Slams in the future.
Nagal has reached in 2nd round of the Australian Open for the first time. In 2021, the Indian star suffered a 2-6, 5-7, 3-6 defeat by Ricardas Berankis of Lithuania in the opening round. However, Nagal has played in the second round of a Grand Slam event before.
Sumit Nagal had won all his three matches in the qualifiers round in two sets each, but in the first round match, he won in three sets. Thus, it seems that he had a tough match in the main round and that was the reason why he won in three sets and this match starched bit for a long time. This match will boost his confidence, which will give a comfortable rhythm in the coming match on 18 January.
