    Hong Kong Open Super: Rising Indian shuttler Ayush Shetty delivered the biggest shock of the tournament so far, ousting Japan’s Kodai Naraoka, the 2023 World Championships silver medallist, to storm into the men’s singles quarterfinals of the Hong Kong Open Super 500 on Thursday.

    The 20-year-old from Karnataka, who won the U.S. Open Super 300 in June, showcased his fearless brand of badminton to outplay the former world No. 2 in a gripping three-game contest. Ayush fought with remarkable composure and attacking flair to prevail 21-19, 12-21, 21-14 in a 72-minute thriller.

    The youngster’s superior court coverage and sharp shot-making helped him take control of the decider, sealing the biggest win of his fledgling career.
