Macau : Top seed K Srikanth bowed out with a straight-game defeat but three other Indians, including Ajay Jayaram and H S Prannoy, advanced to the second round of the $120,000 Macau Open Grand Prix Gold here on Tuesday.

World number seven Srikanth's rough patch continued as he made yet another early exit with a 16-21, 21-23 loss to Christie Jonatan of Indonesia, ranked 40th in the world, in the opening round here.

However, ninth seed Jayaram, who reached the Korea Super Series final and won the Dutch Open this season, produced a gallant effort to see off Hong Kong's Tam Chun Hei 21-6, 25-23 in another men's singles event.
