Indian badminton duo Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty have won the Indonesia Open Super 1000 tournament, making them the first Indian pair to achieve this feat. The win comes just a month after the duo won India’s first-ever gold in doubles at the Badminton Asia Championships. The win is significant for India’s badminton rankings, as this is an Olympic qualification year, and the pair’s success in the tournament means they will earn a significant number of points towards qualification. India’s national badminton coach, Pullela Gopichand, believes their win will ease the pressure on them going into the Olympics. The pair have won multiple titles since forming a team, including Commonwealth Games gold, Thomas Cup gold, World Championship bronze and wins in Super 300, 500 and 750 tournaments. Their success is seen as proving that India is a competitive badminton nation.
