Indian women’s singles shuttler Ashmita Chaliha entered her first semifinal in a BWF World Tour event after she defeated Indonesia’s Ester Nurumi Tri Wardoyo 21-14, 19-21, 21-13 in quarterfinals of Thailand Masters 2024 in Bangkok on Friday.
She will be up against the winner between Supanida Katethong and Chinese Taipei’s Wen Chi Hsu in the semifinal of the BWF World Tour Super 300 event on Saturday.

The Indian pair lost 12-21, 21-17, 21-23 in a hard-fought encounter that lasted over an hour.
In singles, National Champion Mithun Manjunath went down to Mark Caljouw of the Netherlands 19-21, 15-21 in 44 minutes.
