India’s top male tennis player, Sumit Nagal, successfully secured a Chinese visa to compete in the Australian Open Asia-Pacific wild-card playoff in Chengdu after an earlier unexplained rejection. He had publicly appealed on social media to China’s ambassador in India for urgent intervention. Late Thursday, he expressed gratitude to the Chinese Embassy, India’s Ministry of External Affairs, and other officials for their swift help. The playoff runs from November 24–29, and offers a pathway into the 2026 Australian Open. (PC: AP)
