New Delhi<\/strong>: India’s men’s singles players Arvind Bhat and RMV Gurusaidutt on Tuesday made the main draw of the Hong Kong Open Super Series after notching up contrasting wins in the qualifiers.<\/p>\n

Two-time National Champion Arvind beat Yun Lung Chan 15-21, 21-12, 23-21 in the first round, before getting past Ka Long Ng 21-18, 12-21, 21-18 in the second round. He will next play Tien Chen Chou of Chinese Taipei on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

2008 Commonwealth Youth Games gold medallist Gurusaidutt too had a good day in office as he spanked Toby Ng of Canada 21-4, 21-7 and then thrashed Dick Long Chan 21-1, 21-9 to make it to the main draw, where he will face Brice Leverdez of France.<\/p>\n

Another Indian qualifier Sourabh Verma, however, retired midway at 13-21, 5-9 to hand over the match to local player Ka Long and crash out of the event.<\/p>\n

Teen sensation PV Sindhu also looked on course to make it to the main draw when she beat Wing Chiu Tsang 21-9, 21-17 but she faltered against Ying Suet Tse 17- 21, 16-21 in the second round, bringing a premature end to her campaign.<\/p>\n

World number 56 Arvind said it was satisfying to make it to the main draw.<\/p>\n

“I liked my first match today morning where I beat Lung of Hong Kong. Especially in third where I was down 15-9. Normally in such situations its match over for the guy who is on 9. But somehow I felt I could pull off this match and finally prevailed 23-21,” he said.<\/p>\n

“Tomorrow I play Chou from Taipei. I played him in Dutch Open just about a month ago. Sadly I had lost that one. But tomorrow is another day and I know a few things about him for tomorrow. So hope to have a good one,” he added.<\/p>\n
