It was curtains for India at the Scottish Open after men’s singles player Anand Pawar and men’s doubles pair of Manu Attri and B. Sumeeth Reddy bowed out of the 50,000 Grand Prix badminton tournament, in Glasgow.

Pawar, seeded 11th, notched up a 21-13 21-13 win over Germany’s Dieter Domke but he failed to get across top seed Hans-Kristian Vittinghus of Denmark, suffering a 21-12 10-21 13-21 loss to the Dane in the quarterfinals.

In men’s doubles, top seeds Manu and Sumeeth too had reached the quarterfinals with a 17-21 21-17 21-14 win over England’s Christopher Coles and Netherlands’s Jelle Maas but the Indian pair could not tame fifth seeds Andrew Ellis and Peter Mills of England, losing 17-21 15-21 in a 32-minute match.
