NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: Indian shuttlers, including HS Prannoy, Ayush Shetty and Tharun Mannepalli, notched hard-fought wins in the men’s singles competition to make a positive start at the USD 475,000 Australian Open Super 500 event here on Wednesday.
Prannoy, a runner-up at this event in 2023, recovered from a poor opening game to beat world No. 85 Yohanes Saut Marcellyno 6-21 21-12 21-17 in 57 minutes in the first round match.
