HA NOI — Ly Hoang Nam crashed out of the boys' doubles' first round at the US Open's junior circuit on September 9.

Nam and his partner, Japan's Akira Santillan, the number four seed, lost to Tim Sandkaulen of Germany and Mate Valkusz of Hungary 1-6, 6-4, 10-12.

It is a major defeat for southern Tay Ninh Province-born Nam in this Grand Slam tournament as he had won the boys' doubles title at Wimbledon in July.

Earlier, Nam lost the US Open boys' singles first round to Denis Shapovalov of Canada.

Nam will now return home to take part in the National Tennis Championships and the HCM Challenger. — VNS
