Bengaluru, February 21

Sumit Nagal kept India’s hopes alive in the Bengaluru Open with a thrilling win over Ly Nam Hoang of Vietnam in the Round of 32 here today. Nagal notched up an intensely-fought 7-6(3) 5-7 6-4 win over Hoang.

Prajnesh Gunneswaran and SD Prajwal, however, crashed out of the Round of 32. Prajnesh had his moments against Hamad Medjedovic but the Serbian was way better in the crucial moments, emerging a 6-3 6-4 winner. Prajwal could not counter Chinese Taipei’s Jason Jung and bowed out after a 2-6 2-6 defeat.

Australia’s Max Purcell, who won the title in Chennai a couple of days ago, shocked No. 4 seed Sebastian Ofner of Austria 7-6(6) 3-6 6-3. However, it was the end of the road for Leo Borg, son of the legendary Bjorn Borg, as he lost to Yu Hsiou Hsu 2-6 3-6.

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).
