Both players started off well but it was Aditi who broke Harleen to take the lead with a 7-5 win in the opening set. Harleen, though, fought hard and stretched the second set into the tiebreaker before bowing out of the championship with a 6-7(3) loss.    

In the final, Aditi will square off with Ridhima Mehra, who cut short Kanupriya Rajawat’s impressive run with a facile 6-3 6-2 win in the  semifinals.
