Kidambi Srikanth
Indian shuttler Kidambi Srikanth stormed into his first men’s singles final of a BWF event in six years with a straight-game win over Japan’s Yushi Tanaka at the Malaysia Masters Super 500 badminton tournament here on Saturday.
The 32-year-old — a 2021 World Championships silver medallist — dished out a superlative game, showing glimpses of his vintage self with sharp net play and attacking flair to outwit World No. 23 Tanaka 21-18, 24-22 in a thrilling contest.
He will face second seeded Chinese Li Shi Feng in the summit clash on Sunday. This is Srikanth’s first final appearance on the BWF World Tour since finishing runner-up at the 2019 India Open.
