Punjab’s Abhinav Chaudhari won a see-saw battle against Chandigarh’s Tanmay Singla before storming into the boys’ U-16 final of the ongoing Roots AITA Challenge Series (7) National Ranking Tennis Championship.

Chaudhari won the first set 6-2, but went down in the next with a 3-6 verdict. In the final set, Chaudhari overpowered his opponent after a neck-and-neck fight with a 7-5 result in his favour. In the second semifinal, Shaurya Sharma of Uttar Pradesh defeated Priyadarshan Raj of West Bengal 6-4 6-1.

In the boys’ U-18 semifinals, Avi Aggarwal of Uttar Pradesh defeated Punjab’s Amrat Chaudhary 6-4 6-4 and third seed Haryana’s Advit Tiwari overpowered Harman Singh 7-6(5) 7-6(2).

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
