PV Sindhu Hails Lakshya Sen’s ‘phenomenal Run’ In All England Open
All England Open Badminton Championships: Two-time Olympic medallist shuttler PV Sindhu, Lakshya Sen’s “phenomenal run” in the All England Open 2026 after he went down 21-15, 22-20 to Lin Chun-Yi of Chinese Taipei in the men’s singles final, settling for a silver medal. Despite the loss, Sindhu highlighted the qualities Sen displayed on the court.
“Never easy to come back and play a final less than 24 hours after a brutal semifinal. Those matches really stay in the legs. I remember the 2021 All England Open Badminton Championships. I had a really long quarterfinal against Akane Yamaguchi, and the very next day had to step back on court for the semifinal against Pornpawee Chochuwong. Let me tell you, it’s brutal,” Sindhu wrote on X.
Sen spent over five hours on court in the earlier rounds and faced a tough challenge against the lightning-fast Lin. He started slowly in the first game, struggling with the depth of his lifts and tosses, allowing Lin to seize control and take the opening game.
