Seeds safely through in New Delhi!

There were no surprises on the opening day in the $192,500 Punj Lloyd PSA Masters, the 10th and final PSA Super Series championship of the year at the Indian capital city New Delhi. England’s James Willstrop led the day’s action on the ASB all-glass court where he faced rising Egyptian star Mohd Ali Anwar Reda. After being one game down Willstrop battled back to win the match 11-13, 11-5, 11-2, 11-9.
