It was a bad day for Indians at the $ 10,000 ITF men's event as all of them bowed out of the singles event after losing their second round matches.

Former Davis Cupper Harsh Mankad started well by pocketing the first set but squandered the advantage and ultimately went down 6-2, 6-7(1), 4-6.
Vijay Kannan was outplayed by American Nathan Thompson, who won the Mumbai event last week, 1-6, 2-6.
Rohan Gajjar did well to beat national hard court champion Ashutosh Singh in his uncompleted first round match but ran out of steam against Vaja Uzakov of Uzbekistan in the second round.
Gajjar beat Ashutosh 4-6, 7-6(6), 7-6(2) in a tough match but lost 3-6, 2-6 to the Uzbek in the next match.
