Surfer Tayin riding success crest
CHENNAI: AT only 16 years of age, Tayin Arun is at the forefront of a new generation of talented surfers, part of a brand-new movement of Indian surfing. Enjoying an almost meteoric rise in the junior divisions, the surfer broke through to the national surfing team last year, and is now looking to prove his worth with the rest of his teammates at the upcoming ASF Asian Surfing Championships in Mahabalipuram to be held from August 3 to 12. Hailing from Akkarai, Tayin is no stranger to sports. His elder sister Eloksi Arun is a batter for the Tamil Nadu women's cricket team. Reminiscing about his earlier days, Tayin recalls, 'I remember playing many sports as a kid, and surfing seemed to be the sport that I wanted to join. But the infrastucture wasn't developed then. Moreover, many people were scared to send their younger kids out to the sea. So, I only started to learn surfing when I was nine.' Tayin learnt surfing in Kovalam at the Surf Turf, Chennai's first surfing school considered one of the best in the region. This allowed him to not only hone his craft, but also give him exposure and access to surfing equipment. 'Boards are really expensive when you import it, and sometimes not getting access to them can hamper your growth. I used the boards given to me by the TT Group (owned by Arun Vasu, the founder of Surf Turf) for many years because you couldn't get it easily from anywhere else in India," said the young surfer. Today, due to his excellent performances at tournaments such as the Covelong Classics and at the Indian Open of Surfing, he has secured himself sponsorship from the TT Group to get equipment.

Erigaisi reaches SFs, Praggnanandhaa edged out
Las Vegas, July 18 (UNI) A new chapter will be written in the Arjun Erigaisi–Levon Aronian saga as the Indian Grandmaster stormed into the semifinals of the Freestyle Chess Grand Slam Tour, defeating Uzbekistan's Nodirbek Abdusattorov 1.5-0.5 in just two games of the 30'+30" time control. Arjun, with this win, became the first Indian ever to reach the semifinals stage of a Freestyle Grand Slam Tour event. The first game against Abdusattorov was drawn after a tense positional struggle. However, in the second game, Arjun capitalised on a questionable exchange sacrifice by the Uzbek prodigy. A later knight trade further widened the material gap, and despite stiff resistance, Arjun converted the advantage into a crucial victory. With this, Arjun has set up a highly anticipated clash with seasoned American GM Levon Aronian, who got past Hikaru Nakamura 2.5-1.5 in their semifinal encounter. Meanwhile, in arguably the most thrilling quarterfinal battle of the event, R Praggnanandhaa and Fabiano Caruana (USA) exchanged victories across six games in three time controls — 30'+30", 10'+10", and 5'+2". The marathon eventually culminated in an Armageddon game where Caruana prevailed, securing a spot in the semifinals. Hans Niemann (USA) also made headlines by eliminating Javokhir Sindarov (UZB), ensuring his place in the semifinals, where he will face Caruana. In the Lower Bracket, Magnus Carlsen (NOR) demonstrated vintage dominance as he blanked Vidit Gujrathi 2-0. Carlsen now awaits his next opponent from among the Upper Bracket Quarterfinal losers in the Lower Bracket QF. The Upper Bracket semifinals and Lower Bracket quarterfinal Game 1 are scheduled to begin today at 10:30 pm IST. UNI BDN BM

Fouls prove fatal, India crash out of Asia Cup women's basketball
Nagpur: Defensive lapses and a minute of foul fury proved fatal for India as the 79th-ranked women cagers lost the semifinal qualification game to Thailand 76-93 and crashed out of the FIBA Asia Cup basketball tournament at Shenzhen Sports Center in China on Friday. With an aim to register their first win over World No. 66 Thailand, the Indians made a positive start and were able to hold their higher-ranked opponents to a marginal six-point lead at the lemon break. The change of ends turned things in Thailand's favour when India came under severe foul trouble by committing all their four fouls within just a minute in the initial stage of the third quarter. Thailand capitalised on India's third-minute blunder and dominated the remaining period of the third quarter by winning the same 29-18 for a match-winning 17-point advantage. Though India scored heavily in the last quarter — where both teams netted 25 points each — they fell short and lost the qualification game by 17 points. With this defeat in Division B of the tournament, Indian women will now have to wait for four years to participate with the top 10 teams of Asia. If a team qualifies for Division A in 2027, they can participate in the 2029 Asia Cup. Though India won the battle of boards 35-32, Thailand scored as many as 20 turnover points. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Thailand's 40% conversion of three-pointers by converting 18 of the 45 attempts as compared to just the three (3:16) made by India handed them an early exit from the tournament. India's head coach Baskar Sappaniambalam can be held guilty of employing a wrong strategy vis-a-vis their woman-to-woman marking and substitutions. Indian point guard Dharshini Thirunavukkarasu, who was given a floor time of 31 minutes and scored just four baskets, was the one who led India's foul fury in the third quarter. Despite the presence of two other point guards in the contingent, Baskar allowed Dharshini to remain on the court. For Thailand, Rattiyakorn Udomsuk (25) and Warinthon Summat (14) did the bulk of the scoring. Sreekala Rani and Pushpa Senthil Kumar led India's scoring with an identical 23-point effort as Aneesha Cleetus (11) and Sanjana Ramesh (10) scored in double digits. India will now play the fifth-place classification game against Kazakhstan, who lost the qualification against Mongolia 70-78. RESULT: Thailand (Rattiyakorn Udomsuk 25, Warinthon Summat 14) bt India (Sreekala Rani 23, Pushpa Senthil Kumar 23, Aneesha Cleetus 11, Sanjana Ramesh 10) 93-76 (20-18, 19-15, 29-18, 25-25).
