New Delhi: After going down against reigning Olympic champion Viktor Axelsen in the men’s singles semi-final on Sunday, ace Indian shuttler Lakshya Sen will be looking to bounce back when he takes on Malaysia’s Lee Zii jia in the bronze medal match at the Paris Olympics 2024 on Monday, August 05. Lakshya will be eyeing history as he is on the verge of becoming the first Indian male shuttler to win a medal at the Olympics.
Lakshya will be also looking to become only the third Indian shuttler after the likes of PV Sindhu and Saina Nehwal to win an Olympic medal for India in badminton. The 22-year-old has enjoyed a brilliant run at the Paris Olympics so far and stands one win away from winning a medal in his debut campaign. Lakshya started unseeded in Paris and topped his group stage after winning all three matches in Group L.
He began his campaign with a win against veteran Kevin Cordon before defeating Belgium’s Julien Carraggi in his next game. Lakshya was up against world no.3 Jonatan Christie in his third group-stage game and managed to stage an upset with a straight games win against the Indonesian.
Lakshya continued his superb run in the Round of 16 where he defeated his Indian compatriot HS Prannoy to secure a spot in the quarter-finals. The 22-year-old downed Chou Tien-chen in a hard-fought quarter-final and was one win away from booking a spot in the final. However, a defeat against Axelsen shattered his dream of playing in the gold medal match.
Lakshya has played against Malaysia’s Zii Jia five times and has won four matches. The Indian holds an edge over the Malaysian and will be hoping to turn up in the game to secure India’s 4th medal at the Paris Games.
