Thus, I represented India in spain for ‘3’ open tournaments in June-July 2009.In the first tournaments in the open section, I was placed 8th finishing ahead of several good players this tournaments included players form 11 countries and players were About 50.

   "Success was on the far side of failure. For nearly 2 & half years all the college and AITA matches that I played I failed to win any major match. After tons of failures, I wasn't going to give up! I knew something would come someday. Fortunately, I got my biggest win ever!"
