Jeet fells 4th-seed Arjun; Divya joins women seeds’ exit procession

Sonepat, Jun 26 (UNI) After the exit of Pooja Sahasrabudhe, seeded No. 5, Krittwika Sinha Roy, No. 7 and the eighth seed Ayhika Mukherjee in the first round of the women singles main draw yesterday evening, sixth-seeded Divya Deshpande joined the procession in the UTT National Ranking (North Zone) Table Tennis Championships at the DPS School here on today.
Divya lost to Sreeja Akula of RBI 3-4, after putting up a good fight. The RBI player, down 1-2, launched herself well against a docile Divya to lead 3-2 before the PSPB woman pulled back nicely in the sixth game to keep her interests alive. But then some crucial errors saw Divya struggling in the decider which the RBI girl cashed in on to win by minimal points and enter the quarterfinals.
But for this one aberration in the pre-quarterfinals, the remaining women seed took their appointed place and would be playing their quarterfinals later tonight. The other women that went through to the quarters included the top four seeds—Archana Kamath, Madhurika Patkar, Sagarika Mukherjee and Sutirtha Mukherjee.
