Treesa, Gayatri secure spot at World Tour Finals

Commonwealth Games bronze medal winning pair of Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand will be the sole Indian representatives at the BWF World Tour Finals, having secured a place in the women’s doubles category as per the updated BWF rankings. Despite an early exit in the second round of the China Masters, Treesa and Gayatri’s consistent performances throughout the season earned them a spot among the top eight ranked pairs for the prestigious year-end tournament. Their best performances this year include semifinal finishes at the Singapore Open and Macau Open. “I think it is a blissful feeling to participate in such a prestigious tournament. We have watched all the top players compete in this event on TV, so to actually be one to qualify and participate is incredible. I mean, we feel so lucky and happy to have been selected for Hangzhou,” Treesa said.
