Hong Kong Open Super: India’s premier men’s doubles pair Satwik Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty continued their golden run on the international circuit as they stormed into the semifinals of the Hong Kong Open Super 500 badminton tournament with a hard-fought victory over Malaysia’s Arif Junaidi and Roy King Yap on Friday.

The world No. 8 duo, who recently bagged a bronze medal at the BWF World Championships, showed grit and composure in a 64-minute quarterfinal clash, eventually prevailing 21-14, 20-22, 21-16 in front of an enthusiastic crowd.

The match began with the Indians making a cautious start, but once they found their rhythm at 12-all in the opening game, there was no stopping them. Their trademark big smashes and sharp interceptions saw them run away with the first game, clinching five consecutive points to seal it 21-14.
