Saturday바카라™s win was a huge moment not only for Indian badminton but also for world No. 14 Srikanth, who had endured injuries and a loss of form that saw him miss the Tokyo Olympics earlier this year, since winning four Super Series titles in 2017.

Srikanth바카라™s last medal came in 2019 when he had to settle for a silver at the India Open losing to Viktor Axelsen in the final.
