Sameer Verma - Lone Surviving Indian
Sameer Verma is now the lone surviving Indian at the Denmark Open 2021. He will be in action soon at court number 2 of the Odense Sports Park.
Verma will be up against Tommy Sugiarto of Indonesia. Considering the way he played yesterday, a win will not really be out of the question of Sameer Verma.

A new nemesis?
Is An Se-Young the new nemesis for PV Sindhu? They have played twice and Sindhu has lost both encounters.
Yes, the sample size is certainly very less, but Sindhu has lost both the matches in straight games.
