Denmark Open: Kidambi Srikanth and Lakshya Sen begin title hunt as badminton returns amid pandemic

Firstpost  

Odense : Olympic hopeful Kidambi Srikanth and fast-rising Lakshya Sen will look to strike the right note from the word go as they return to competitive badminton at the USD 750,000 Denmark Open, which will re-start the calendar after a COVID-19 forced seven-month hiatus. Lakshya, on the other hand, had been on a title-winning spree last year, claiming as many as five titles, including two BWF World Tour Super 100 top honours, SaarLorLux Open and Dutch Open to zoom to 32nd in the international standings. So I am really excited.” Besides, Ajay Jayaram and Subhankar Dey too will be aiming to go deep in the men’s singles draw that has been left depleted due to the withdrawals of the Japanese contingent, including world champion Kento Momota, World No 35 Koki Watanabe, World No 11 Kanta Tsuneyama. Denmark Open is the only tournament to be held this year with BWF forced to move the World Tour Finals and the two Asia opens to Bangkok in January next year.
