Redwood City (USA), Oct 24 (PTI) India’s Anahat Singh crashed out in the semifinals of the Silicon Valley squash tournament after losing to the world No. 4 Sivasangari Subramaniam of Malaysia.
The world No. 15 and reigning world junior champion, Anahat went down 11-5 6-11 4-11 7-11 for her third defeat to the Malaysian opponent in as many meetings.
Anahat had earlier defeated Egypt’s world No. 3 and eight-time world champion Nour El Sherbini while making it to the final four.
