The result is the biggest upset of the season. Shetty will travel to the national championships.
Shetty trailed 14-19 in the second game before reeling off seven straight points on the strength of her cross-court smash. The top seed, a three-time state champion, said afterwards, "She was fitter than me in the third game and that was that."
Shetty is coached by her mother, a former district player, in a converted garage in Sevli. The state association has promised to fund her trip to the nationals.
