Indian tennis player Sumit Nagal on Tuesday, dazzles at the Marrakech Open, defeating Corentin Moutet of France at the ATP 250 event in Morocco. This builds a promising star for Nagal.
Nagal, currently ranked 95, rallied his way to beat Moutet 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 in the opening round of the Grand Prix Hassan II event.
The win became more special as Nagal previous year had lost to the same opponent in a Challenger final in Helsinki.
Nagal will be up against fourth-seeded Italian Lorenzo Sonego in the next round, which will be a repeat of the first-round clash between the two in this year's Dubai Championships.
Writing in a post on X, Nagal stated, "Stoked to begin my clay season with a hard-fought win in Marrakech, Looking forward to the next match already. Let’s goooo!."
