Indians bury ghosts of 2024 Olympics to overcome familiar rivals, secure medal at Worlds

- ANMOL GURUNG @ Chennai

A WEEK or so before the ongoing World Championships, India's doubles specialist Satwiksairaj Rankireddy, during an interaction with this newspaper, had said that he and his partner Chirag Shetty were inching closer to their best and they'll be leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit to deliver 'magic' in the BWF World Tour Grade 1 competition.

True to his words, Satwik and Chirag have been conjuring magic at the Adidas Arena in Paris in the last few days. In the wee hours on Saturday, the former World No 1 pair was simply unplayable. Relentless in their approach from start to finish, they bullied the pairing of Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik, their familiar rivals who had caused heartaches to them in the last 12 months.
