\"tableVadodara:<\/strong> Tamil Nadu\u2019s M. Hansini claimed her maiden Under-19 Girls\u2019 singles title with a hard-fought 4-2 victory over Haryana\u2019s Suhana Saini in the UTT 86th Junior and Youth National Championships at the SAMA Indoor Complex.<\/p>\n

The electrifying final saw both players leveraging their strong backhands, punctuated by well-placed forehands and thrilling rallies, keeping the audience on edge.<\/p>\n

Suhana opened in commanding fashion, storming to an 11-1 win and lead in the first game. However, Hansini\u2019s composed recovery levelled the match in the second. The third game was a nail-biter, with Hansini narrowly edging out Suhana after saving three game points, gaining a crucial 2-1 advantage. Hansini then took the fourth game, battling through Suhana\u2019s late surge. While Suhana bounced back in the fifth to force a deuce and extend the match, Hansini refocused in the sixth game, holding off another spirited comeback to clinch the title. Suhana, a quarterfinalist last year, will rue missed opportunities but walks away with a commendable silver.<\/p>\n

Hansini\u2019s semifinal journey was a dominant 4-1 win over Maharashtra\u2019s Kavya Bhatt, where her superior control forced her opponent into errors. Suhana, on the other hand, redeemed herself after a team event loss, overpowering Taneesha Kotecha of Maharashtra in straight games. While Taneesha showed glimpses of brilliance, she appeared fatigued, allowing Suhana to cruise into the final.<\/p>\n

Maharashtra Doubles Domination<\/p>\n

The doubles events became a showcase for Maharashtra\u2019s rising stars, as they swept the gold medals in the Under-19 and Under-17 categories. In the Under-19 final, Taneesha Kotecha and Sayali Wani emerged victorious against state teammates Pritha Vartikar and Ananya Chande in a closely contested 3-1 battle. The pair combined aggressive net play with clever shot placement, outmanoeuvering their opponents in crucial moments. Pritha and Ananya fought valiantly, but their inability to sustain pressure in key rallies allowed Taneesha and Sayali to seal the gold.<\/p>\n

Haryana and Delhi had to settle for the bronze medals in the Doubles events, underlining the competitive spirit and talent on display.<\/p>\n

In the Under-17 doubles, Maharashtra extended their dominance with another stellar performance, showcasing depth and coordination across their squads. In the doubles final, Naisha Rewaskar and Divyanshi Bhowmick effectively coordinated to secure a convincing 3-0 win over Delhi\u2019s Sayanika Maji and Tushti Sood. The Delhi duo settled for silver, while the bronze medals went to Bengal and Tamil Nadu paddlers.<\/p>\n
