Chetan Anand's fitness proves critical in win at World Championships

Chetan Anand's second round win over Bulgarian Stilian Makarski has thrilled coach Atik Johari. "Chetan moved well and used his fitness and reach to great advantage. His next match against Sony Dwi Kuncoro of Indonesia will be an interesting one. Chetan is looking confident and that's what is very important at this level," Johari said.

India's P Kashyap may have lost to the second seeded Chinese Chen Jin, but the manner in which he fought was encouraging. "Kashyap is the future of India in men singles. He needs two more years on the circuit to get into top 15 rankings. We are working on his fitness and I am sure he will prove himself by 2011," said Johari.
