All-England Badminton: Lakshya Sen Bows Out In Quarterfinals
England Open Badminton Championships: India's Lakshya Sen bowed out in the quarterfinals of the All-England badminton championship 2025 with a straight games loss to China’s Li Shifeng, the 2022 Asian Games gold medallist, in Birmingham, England, on Friday.
The 23-year-old Indian, who had put on a dominant display in the previous round in men's singles against defending champion Jonatan Christie of Indonesia, struggled to replicate that form against Feng, going down 10-21, 16-21 in a 45-minute contest. Sen, ranked No. 15 in the world, was up against the formidable Li Shifeng, who showcased superior control and aggression right from the start.
The first game was a one-sided affair, with Shifeng racing to an early lead before rattling off nine consecutive points to claim the opener 21-10.
