Visa featured **8 players** in Tournament 6 across **Men’s Singles, Men’s Doubles, Mixed Doubles, Women’s Singles, Women’s Doubles, and 35+ Men’s events**. The biggest highlight of the tournament was **Garima Pandey winning the Women’s Singles title**, once again proving Visa’s dominance in the women’s circuit. Visa also had multiple entries in men’s doubles and mixed doubles, with Suhas Rajasekar fighting a competitive 3-set win in Mixed Doubles.
