In an exciting contest, Yassein Shohdy fought hard and threatened top seed Jonah Bryant, while [3/4] seed Mohamed Zakaria got the better of Varun Chitturi.

In the women’s draw, the seeded players continued to impress: top seed Amina Orfi, who won the women’s competition as a 15-year-old last year, continued her fine form as she got the better of Malaysian [9/16] seed Sehveetrraa Kumar in straight games, while No.2 seed Fayrouz Aboelkheir eased past [5/8] seed Nour Megahed in an all-Egyptian affair.

I’m an intense contest on Court Nine, Indian [5/8] seed Anahat Singh came from behind in a see-saw encounter against [9/16] seed Nadien Elhammamy, with the 15-year-old winning 8-11, 11-2, 11-8, 9-11, 11-8 in 52 minutes to set up a quarter-final with [3/4] seed Malak Khafagy.

Egypt’s Zeina Zein complete the Egyptian presence after win over USA’s Madison Ho.
