Chennai: None of the remaining three Indians, including Rohan Bopanna, could make the main singles draw of the Chennai Open as all of them suffered defeats in the second round of the qualifying event on Sunday.
It means that India's representation in the men's singles will be restricted to Somdev Devvarman and wild card entrants Yuki Bhambri and Vishnu Vardhan.
Big serving Bopanna fought hard before losing 6-7(2), 6-7(2) to Japan's Go Soeda while Mohit Mayur Jayaprakash lost his second round clash 3-6, 2-6 to Canadian Vasek Pospisil.
Talented left-hander Prajnesh Gunneswaran also fought valiantly before losing to experienced American campaigner Rajeev Ram 6-3, 7-6 (3).
In a highly competitive affair, World No. 120 Soeda broke Bopanna in the third game of the first set while Bopanna broke Soeda in the sixth game of the same set.
