Sumit Nagal Exits US Open in First Round

Indian player Sumit Nagal bowed out in the first round against Tallon Griekspoor at the US Open 2024, despite showing resilience in the third set. Nagal made history by being the first Indian male player since 2019 to compete in all four Grand Slams within a calendar year and will also compete in the men’s doubles. The second day of the US Open features matches with top seeds Jannik Sinner, who recently avoided a ban due to inadvertent contamination, and former champions Carlos Alcaraz and Daniil Medvedev. Veteran Rohan Bopanna, alongside Matthew Ebden, aims to build on their runner-up finish from last year. The US Open continues to showcase a mix of emerging talents and seasoned players, making it a captivating event for tennis fans worldwide.
