Joshna Chinappa, who is participating in a PSA world series tournament in El Gouna, lost to Laura Massaro 4-11, 8-11, 2-11 in the quarter-finals yesterday.
Joshna Chinappa and her squash mate Dipika Pallikal won silver medals at the Commonwealth Games 2018 in Gold Coast earlier this month.
Joshna Chinappa and Dipika Pallikal had to settle for a silver in the women's doubles competition. Pallikal also won a historic silver in the mixed doubles with Saurav Ghosal. As defending champions, the thought of the past glory did come to the mind, said Chinappa, who had won a gold medal in the Glasgow Games in 2014 alongside Pallikal.
"Four years since, much has happened in squash. We were there on the podium then and the goal was not to miss that moment again. To that extent it was satisfactory finish," she said. "We are encouraged to work harder for next big challenge, the Asian Games in August," she added.
