Ramkumar Ramanathan advanced to the second round of the Wimbledon Qualifiers but Prajnesh Gunneswaran bowed out here on Tuesday.
Ramkumar beat Slovakia's 13th seed Jozef Kovalik 6-3, 6-0 in exactly an hour in his first round.
Prajnesh, ranked 148, lost 6-1, 7-6(5) to Britain’s Arthur Fery, ranked 1038.
"I had tendinitis (left-wrist) which started three weeks ago. It's fine now. But I just started playing. I only hit for two days and for less than an hour each. So just not in the best shape," Prajnesh told PTI.
"If it wasn't Wimbledon. I wouldn't have played. Just didn't have enough time to get ready," he added.
