Harshit Mahimkar and Prisha Shah won two titles winning the men's and women's singles and boys and girls' under-17 singles finals respectively in the NSCI-hosted Yonex Sunrise-Maharashtra State Open Badminton Tournament 2024, organized by Court Champions 24 in association with the Greater Mumbai Badminton Association (GMBA) and conducted under the auspices of Maharashtra Badminton Association (MBA) and played at the Willingdon Sports Club courts.

The unseeded GMBA shuttler Harshit showed great character and composure to hand fourth-seeded Soham Phatak a straight game 21-12, 21-17 defeat with a degree of comfort in the men’s singles final.

Later, the lanky Harshit seeded second was in good form and with clever tactics brushed aside the challenge from number one seed Tanay Mehendale charging to a 21-7, and 21-13 without much ado to complete a grand double.

In the women’s final, Prisha Shah got the better of Devanshi Shinde 21-18, and 21-10 and then in the girls’ U-17 singles finals, second-seeded Prisha Shah defeated Khushi Pahwa 21-16, and 21-16 to clinch her second crown in the tournament.
