Antigua and Barbuda’s table tennis standout Stuti Kashyap continues her impressive international run, capturing the silver medal in the U17 Girls Singles at the WTT Youth Contender Caracas held at the Gimnasio de Tenis de Mesa “Elizabeth Popper Francisco Lopez”.
In a thrilling tournament run, Stuti showcased resilience and world-class skill:
