Key points
Ayush Shetty fought back from a horror start to dig deep and secure a sensational comeback win in the first round of the Indonesia Open on Wednesday, June 3, against Weng Hongyang.
HS Prannoy's fight wasn't enough on the day as he bowed out of the tournament early with a three-game loss to Nhat Nguyen.
Ayush's win came as a bit of a cheer for the Indian contingent, which saw Satwik-Chirag exit the competition due to an injury in the first round.
The Indian ace didn't have the best start to the game, as he found himself on the back foot.
Ayush raced to a 5-2 lead early on, but errors allowed his Chinese counterpart to bounce back and go on a si point run.
