Sumit Nagal sets his eyes on making it big in singles
Junior Wimbledon doubles champion set himself a target of breaking into top-300
New Delhi: A doubles title at the prestigious Wimbledon has put him in the spotlight but Sumit Nagal says he is more keen to excel in the singles and has set himself a target of breaking into top-300 by the end of this year.
Seventeen-year-old Nagal, who trains at Schuttler Waske Tennis University near Frankfurt, won the junior boys doubles title with Vietnam’s Nam Hoang Ly.“My main focus is on singles. My goal is to be in top 300 by this year so let’s see where I can take myself. I will do my best,” he said.
Nagal, who is training with Meriano Delfino since last July, is ranked 745 on the ATP charts and is yet to turn Pro. Mahesh Bhupathi supports him. “He helped me in everything. I am very lucky to have him in my team,” Nagal said.
