Singapore Open: Satwik-Chirag return as Sindhu leads wounded pack

The tournament marks their much-anticipated comeback to elite badminton after nearly two months away due to injury concerns—Chirag's back trouble and Satwik's health issues had kept them out since the All England Championships in March and forced a Sudirman Cup withdrawal.

Now fully fit, the world No. 3 pair—former world No. 1—will begin their campaign against Malaysia's Choong Hon Jian and Muhammad Haikal. The duo had made strong starts to the year, reaching the semifinals at both the Malaysia Open and India Open, and they'll now be eager to rediscover their rhythm and reassert their Olympic credentials.

When the new campus opened in June 2024 with students from over twenty countries already on its rolls, it was not nostalgia speaking. It was the rebuilding of a node in a knowledge network that had once made Asia luminous
