Maniel Bains was 2nd on the alt list here and the second seed in qualies (the top seed is a ringer) was 4th so it is probably safe to say he is a DA now.
QR1: Faris Akhazzan UNR v Bhishman Desai (IND) UNR
Disturbing result against an unranked player, although Sitaram did beat Rupesh Roy WR 889 6-0 6-3 in qualifying.
... having lost all his matches before this week in straight sets. Very strange, and whichever way you look at it, a very bad result for Maniel.
The previous matches were in Challenger qualifying. However, his junior record is hardly amazing: in his matches with Brits this year he's beaten James Chaudhry and lost to Alastair Barnes, Ashley Watling and Faris Akhazzan...
