Indira Gandhi Sports Complex: French badminton history was written in pure gold as Thom Gicquel and Delphine Delrue clinched their first-ever BWF World Championships title, and their victory lap is already legendary.
The party kicked off the second they stepped into the mixed zone, where their coaching staff blindsided them with a pop of champagne. But that victory splash was just the opening act.
When IANS asked the French mixed doubles pair how they plan to truly celebrate the historic gold, Gicquel kept it unapologetically direct: "We are gonna take the bottle and put it in our mouth. That's the goal."
