Digvijay eyes comeback at SMK Memorial Open

Bengaluru, Mar 31 (UNI) The main draw of the SM Krishna Memorial Open is set to commence on Monday, ushering in a week of high-intensity tennis action at the SM Krishna Tennis Stadium. The ITF Men’s M25 event, boasting a prize purse of USD 30,000, has drawn a strong lineup of players. The doubles final is scheduled for April 5, while the singles final will take place on April 6.
Among the key participants is India's Digvijay Pratap Singh, making a return to competitive tennis after an 18-month hiatus due to an illness. Speaking about his comeback, he said, "I’m making my comeback after a long setback with a kind of autoimmune disease. This is my fourth tournament after a one-and-a-half-year break, but I am feeling well, actually feeling the best I've felt in a while, especially at this place."
Bengaluru holds a special place for Digvijay, as he clinched his first Challenger title in the city. "I have a lot of memories. My first Challenger win was in Bengaluru, and I would always participate; I would not miss a single tournament here," he added. Praising the Karnataka State Lawn Tennis Association (KSLTA), the 24-year-old remarked, "For me, as a club, as a tournament, it's the best city to organise a tournament in India."
