When the Indian badminton contingent flew to Paris to participate in the 33rd edition of the Summer Games most of the eyeballs were pinned on the two-time Olympic medallist PV Sindhu and the world No. three Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty.
While there were talks about India's participation in the men's singles category, nobody really gave HS Prannoy and Lakshya Sen a chance to advance to the quarters. Six days into the global event, Lakshya remains the lone representative of India in badminton at the Paris Olympics.
The 22-year-old has already equalled India's best performance in the men's singles category at the Summer Olympics after securing a quarterfinal berth and now aims to script history. A win will take Lakshya where no other Indian men's shuttler has ever reached - a semifinal of the Summer Games.
Notably, Parupalli Kashyap was the first Indian male shuttler to reach the quarters at the Summer Olympics. Kashyap reached the milestone at the London Olympics. His feat was equalled by Kidambi Srikanth in Rio four years later.
