The Indian challenge in badminton came to an end with the country’s only remaining hope Nikhil Kanetkar going down in the second round of the singles competition of the Olympic Games here today.

Kanetkar went down to sixth seed Peter Gade of Denmark 10-15, 6-15 to bring the curtains down on India’s contest at the Goudi Olympic Hall here. The 25-year-old Indian, who had defeated Sergio Llopis of Spain in the opening round, made a valiant attempt to make a match of it against the Dane but never really threatened the former world champion.
