Freddie's reward is a match against another wildcard - albeit a much stronger one, who didn't enter and took out the second seed today having narrowly missed out on a seeding himself.

Boys R1 (L32)

(3) Jack Draper v Kabir Manrai (IND)
Freddie Grant d. (WC) Tarush Bagai (IND) 6-1 6-2

R2

Freddie Grant v (WC) Dhruv Sunish (IND)

Girls R1 (L32)

(WC) Prinkle Singh (IND) v (7) Esther Adeshina
Gemma Heath d. (WC) Srishti Dhir (IND) 6-0 6-0

R2

(6) Akanksha A Bhan (IND) v Gemma Heath

Jack comes through easily but Esther gets a surprise (on paper?) loss to the born 2001 wildcard, JWR 1419:

Girls R1 (L32)

(WC) Prinkle Singh (IND) def. (7) Esther Adeshina 6-3 6-2

Boys R1 (L32)

(3) Jack Draper def. Kabir Manrai (IND) 6-1 6-0

That's a puzzling defeat for Esther (assuming ITF have it the right way round) given her opponent was 3-7 in G4/G5 events mainly

Boys R2

(3) Jack Draper v Vashisht Cheruku (IND)
Freddie Grant v (WC) Dhruv Sunish (IND)

Girls R2

(6) Akanksha A Bhan (IND) v Gemma Heath

Only Jack left standing in the singles:

Boys R2

Freddie Grant lost to (WC) Dhruv Sunish (IND) 6-4 6-2

Girls R2

Gemma Heath lost to (6) Akanksha A Bhan (IND) 6-3 6-2


In the doubles, Freddie+ lost but Jack+ won and the two girls, playing together, also won.

Impressive by all. For Jack Draper, it's Siddhant Banthia up next in singles. The latter's ranking is 72 - hard to evaluate from looking at results, as most are against players I don't know. But he did take Alberto Lim, who's good, to three sets last May.

And reassuringly he has already had a successful look at him in the doubles.

 He also won a G2 event in Thailand last October as 11th seed, which suggests a strong opponent, even allowing for the variation in strength of Asian tournaments

Boys SF

(1) Siddhant Banthia (IND) v (3) Jack Draper

Doubles F

(1) Park/Yu (KOR/TPE) v Cheruku/Draper (IND/GBR)

Girls Doubles F

Adeshina/Heath v (4) Lee/Sawangkaew (TPE/THA)
