Mumbai paddler Diya Chitale bags silver medal in Belgium

Mumbai’s young talented paddler Diya Chitale continued with her fine showing by adding the Cadet Girls’ singles silver medal to the Cadet girls’ team gold medal she had won earlier, in the Belgium Junior and Cadet Open Table Tennis Championship, which is part of the ITTF World Junior Circuit.

The 14-year-old Diya, who had played a crucial role by winning both her singles matches which helped India to the gold medal victory in the cadet girl’s team championship, carried that consistent form to the singles event. The third seed Diya put up a gallant performance and enjoyed an excellent run to the final, before going down fighting to top seed Am y Wang of the USA in four games in the title clash.
