Clara Azurmendi falls with the number one and current world champion in its premiere in India

MADRID, 18 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Spanish player Clara Azurmendi could not overcome her debut at the India Open on Wednesday, a category 750 event on the world badminton circuit, when she fell to the world number one, the Japanese Akane Yamaguchi, 21-7, 21- eleven.

The Gipuzkoan had a difficult debut at the event as she was up against one of the best currently in her sport, the current world champion and who hardly gave her any options. Azurmendi was dismasted from the start in the first set, while in the second she held on a bit more, insufficient to create problems for the Japanese.
