Summary
Rahul Deswal Wins Four Matches Across Singles and Mixed Doubles in Navelim
Rahul Deswal’s tournament began with two wins on the same Friday evening, then stretched into a six-match, 164-minute campaign across men’s singles and mixed doubles at the BPS State Badminton Ranking Tournament 2026 in Navelim.
In singles, Deswal opened qualifying by beating Aaryan Karpe 15-8, 15-8, then defeated Vansh Khedkar 15-10, 15-5. The next day brought the biggest scalp in the dossier: a 30-19 victory over sixth-seeded Anuj Vernekar in the main draw. Deswal recovered from losing the opening game 11-15 by taking the second 15-8. His singles run ended against top-seeded Nishant Shenai, who won a three-game match 15-10, 9-15, 9-15.
His mixed-doubles journey with Synnovia Dsouza also started on August 7, with a 15-8, 15-9 win over eighth-seeded Chirag Mahale and Synnovia Dsouza. The pair’s second-round campaign ended against third seeds Shaheen C K and Dimple Revankar, 12-15, 8-15.
The schedule demanded patience. Deswal’s four Friday matches were separated by gaps of 51, 37 and 83 minutes, while Saturday’s singles and doubles matches were 88 minutes apart. The two events were closely balanced in one subtle respect: he won 105 of 175 rallies on serve and 68 of 135 on receive overall, but the post-interval split dipped from 38 of 60 before the interval to 30 of 60 after it. In singles, his 3-1 record included the only deciding game he played, which he lost. Four wins, two losses, and two separate event threads made this a campaign that lasted well beyond a single draw.
