Malaysian Open: Satwiksairaj Rankireddy-Chirag Shetty's Run Ends In Semifinals
The popular men's doubles duo of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty were knocked out of the ongoing Malaysian Open badminton tournament in the semifinal stage in Kuala Lumpur. On Saturday, the seventh-seeded Indian duo was defeated by South Korea's Kim Won-ho and Seo Seung-Jae 10-21, 15-21 in a rather one-sided match within 40 minutes, bringing an end to the Indian challenge at the Malaysian Open. "They played well," Satwik summed up as quoted by Olympics.com. "We saw them playing well earlier in the tournament as well and we were prepared. But I felt they played really well today... They did not give away any easy points and made us work hard for every point."
