The main factors influencing Indian shuttler Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty's incredible season are complete clarity on goals, regular mental checks, and taking breaks from the sport. The duo became the first Indian pair to win the French Open Super 750 championship on Sunday.

The Indian doubles team of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty bagged the French Open Super 750 title late on Sunday after they beat the Taipei pair of Lu Ching Yao and Yang Po Han in the men's doubles final. The world no.8 team won the match 21-12, 21-19 in only 48 minutes.

Saina Nehwal, who won bronze at the London 2012 Olympics, lost a lead and withdrew from the women's singles competition on Tuesday's opening day of the French Open 2022. The doubles winners from CWG 2022, Chirag Shetty and Satwiksairaj Rankireddy, advanced to the second round with ease.
