Bwf Thailand Open News

Chirag Shetty was adamant that him along with doubles partner Satwiksairaj Rankireddy played like champions en route to the BWF Thailand Open title which they won on Sunday. The young pair created history by becoming the first Indian men's doubles pair to win a major super 500 event.

B Sai Praneeth bowed out of the ongoing BWF Thailand Open with a 21-18, 21-12 defeat at the hands of Kanta Tsuneyama of Japan. Meanwhile, mixed doubles duo of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Ashwini Ponnappa suffered a disappointing exit at the hands of Japanese pair Yuta Watanabe and Arisa Higashino.

Most of the big guns’ challenge in the Thailand Open ended on Thursday with the likes of Saina Nehwal, Kidambi Srikanth, and P Kashyap lost their matches in their respective events. However, the Indian contingent’s contention is still kept alive by B Sai Praneeth and the young men’s doubles pair.
