New Delhi: Top seed Mohit Mayur Jayaprakash and Arjun Kadhe on Friday clinched the men's doubles title and also reached the singles final of the Fenesta Open National Tennis Championships here.






The duo were a game down in the first set but turned the match around thereafter to beat P.C. Vignesh and Fariz Mohammed 6-4, 6-4 at the Delhi Lawn Tennis Association (DLTA) Complex.

Earlier, Chennai's Mohit overcame former national champion and third seed Nitten Kirrtane of Maharashtra 6-1, 2-6, 6-2 to enter the singles title round while last year's runner-up Arjun had an easy outing against fourth seed Chandril Sood, winning 6-2, 6-1.

The big-serving Mohit started the day with his intentions clear and broke Nitten in the fourth and sixth games of the opening set to finish the set in barely 30 minutes. However, Nitten brought his experience into play and broke his rival twice in the second to take the match into the decider. But Nitten could not cause an upset in the third set and Mohit sealed the issue to enter the final.
