French Open 2021 LIVE, Day 3: PV Sindhu, Satwik-Chirag and others eye quarters - Scores, Updates, Results, Live Blog
What a start!
A wonderful start for Lakshya Sen as he races to a 7-2 lead just 3 minutes into the contest. Can he maintain this?
Lakshya Sen is here!
Lakshya Sen is out on court number 3 now. He is up against Loh Kean Yew. The duo has faced off twice in their career so far with both winning one match each. The rankings, however, favours the Indian who is ranked 22nd in the world compared to Singaporean's 40.
It is SAMEER VERMA
Sameer Verma has retired, AGAIN! It is his second time in two tournaments. He had pulled out of a match in the Denmark Open as well.
Yet again a sad end to Sameer Verma's campaign, who is otherwise playing beautifully.
The Decider is ON!
That was some comeback from Shesar. He gave Sameer Verma no chance post the break and pockets the second game 21-12. We are heading towards a decider, folks!
Shesar is running away!
The Indonesian is running away with this. He has almost doubled his lead post-break and leads 16-11. Can Verma prevent a decider?
11-8
It is Shesar once again who leads at the mid-game break - a better margin than in the first game. Can Sameer Verma once again make a comeback to win this match, or will the Indonesian push this into a decider?
Another close start!
It is yet another close start in the match. This time the scores are level at 5 all. Who will break free?
Sameer takes the first game!
Wonderful play from Sameer Verma to take the first game. It was all square until moments ago, but the Indian suddenly raises the bar and Shesar has no answers.
Verma takes the first game 21-16.
