Talented Maaya Rajeshwaran Revathi lined herself up for her first singles title in more than a year with yet another upset win but top seed Senthil Kumar`s impressive run at the ITF J300 event ended with a semifinal defeat on Friday.
Maaya has been in red-hot form which she utilised to knock out second seed Eleejah Inisan of France in a fiercely-fought girls` singles semifinal at the DLTA Complex.
Passing the test of nerves with flying colours, the 15-year-old Maaya eked out a 6-4 6-7(4) 6-2 win to set up the title clash with Ekaterina Tupitsyna, who too had to fight hard against Polina Berezina.
Tupitsyna emerged a 6-3 4-6 6-1 winner in the tight semifinal.
Maaya had won a singles title back in December 2023 when she triumphed in Pune in a J100 event.
Senhtil has been in a superb touch but his run was finally halted by Korean fourth seed Donghyun Hwang, who came out 6-4 6-1 winner.
Once Senthil lost the opening set, the Korean raced away to the finish line with a double break.
Hwang will clash with unseeded American of Indian origin Roshan Santhosh, who prevented an all-Korean boys` singles final with his 6-4 6-0 win over Hyeon Seok Seo in the other semifinal.
The boys` doubles title was grabbed by the fourth-seeded pair of Artem Bogomlov and Roman Kharlamov, who bounced back in the final against equally formidable combination of Alan Aiukhanov and Alexey Shibaev, winning 5-7 7-6(6) 10-1.
The girls` doubles trophy went to the top seeds Konstantinova Yoana and Rada Zolotareva, who emerged winner against the Korean-Taipei team of Yesung Lin Choo and Yu-Chen with a 6-3 6-2 scoreline.
