Aqeel Khan to compete in India

Published July 18, 2008

KARACHI, July 17: Davis Cupper Aqeel Khan will travel to India next month to feature in two back-to-back ITF Challengers and as many ITF Futures during August-September.

After competing in the ITF Challengers, the Pakistan’s ace tennis player will avail the fortnight break by undergoing training at the Harvest Tennis Academy in Ludhiana.

This will be followed by his participation in the two legs of the ITF Futures being held at Chennai and Delhi during the holy month of Ramazan.

According to him, the expenses of his visit are being borne by a private entrepreneur.

He was to proceed to Syria earlier this month to compete in ITF Futures but cancelled the trip due to National Hard Court championship and Subh-e-Nau Tennis Cup.
