Tennis

Eight athletes from India participated in this event. Vaishnavi Adkar (from Savitribai Phule Pune University) became the first Indian woman tennis player to win a medal in the World University Games by sealing the bronze medal in the Women's individual event.[2] She also broke the 46-year wait for an Indian to win a tennis medal since Nandan Bal's silver in the 1979 games.[3] The mixed doubles pair of Atharva Sharma (from KIIT University) and Vaishnavi Adkar came close but were eliminated in the quarter-finals.
