Harsh wins maiden Challenger title

NEW DELHI SEPT. 14. Harsh Mankad won his maiden Challenger doubles title in the $25,000 tennis tournament in Dontesk, Ukraine, on Sunday.

Third-seeded Harsh and Jason Marshall of the U.S. beat Sergey Stakhovsky of Ukraine and Andrei Stoliarov of Russia 6-2, 6-4 in the final.

It was a culmination of a good run for Harsh with Marshall, as the duo had lost in three sets in the final of the $50,000 Challenger last week in Kiev.

It has been a fruitful season, especially in doubles, for Harsh as he had won four Futures titles this year, two with Vishaal Uppal and two others with Leonardo Tavares of Portugal, apart from winning three titles in the Satellite circuit including the Masters in Portugal.

Karan loses in final: Karan Rastogi went down with guns blazing in the final of the grade I ITF junior tennis tournament in Kentucky, U.S.

Ninth-seeded Karan saved six matchpoints before losing 3-6, 7-5, 5-7 to top-seeded Leonardo Kirche of Brazil.
