Jolly won her first singles match of the day against Fenna Lores of Netherlands with ease in just two games, the score reading 21-9, 21-13. While Jolly, the seventh-seed succeeded, so did the 11th-seed Tasnim Mir against Hong Kong’s Lui Lok Lok through a scoreline of 21-14, 21-17.

Unfortunately, Aditi Bhatt conceded a walkover against Saifi Rizka Nurhridaya of Indonesia. But Tanya Hemanth and Mansi Singh both won their respective matches. The former against Netherlands’ Kirsten de Wit 21-10, 21-17 while the latter against Estonia’s Catlyn Kruus 21-19, 21-16.

All the victors from the above-mentioned matches were in action again later on day 3. Treesa won her second match also, against Lin Tzu-Yun of Chinese Taipei 21-10, 21-18. So did Tasnim, against Laura Floj Thomsen 21-15, 21-8. Another successful person was Mansi who defeated fifth-seeded Dutch girl Amy Tan 22-20, 21-14.

However, Tanya Hemanth’s journey ended with a 21-19, 21-12 loss to Indonesia’s Siti Sarah Azzahrah 21-19, 21-12.
