Satwik–Chirag Create History, Enter First-Ever Men’s Doubles Semi-Finals at BWF World Tour Finals
India’s star men’s doubles pair Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty created history by becoming the first Indian men’s doubles duo to enter the semi-finals of the BWF World Tour Finals.
The World No. 3 pair stunned World No. 2 Malaysians Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik 17-21, 21-18, 21-15 with a spirited comeback, topping Group B and avenging their Paris 2024 Olympic defeat. The Indians remained unbeaten in the group stage with earlier wins over China’s Liang Wei Keng–Wang Chang and Indonesia’s Fajar Alfian–Muhammad Shohibul Fikri.
They now face Indonesia’s Sabar Karyaman Gutama and Muhammad Reza Pahlevi Isfahani in the semi-finals.
