Los Angeles Olympics: A lot of things have fallen in place for India's top men's doubles pair, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty, as they claimed their first title on the BWF circuit after a gap of two years and claimed their maiden title at the Singapore Open on Sunday. The triumph in difficult circumstances has not only completed their comeback from injury layoffs but also given them the confidence to pursue their ultimate goal of winning a medal in the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.

In the lead-up to winning the title in Singapore, the Indian duo, a former World No.1 pair which is now ranked No.3 in BWF Rankings, Sat-Chi had reunited with their former coach Mathias Boe, who has joined them and their main coach Tan Kim Her, as a consultant, and played a major role in them achieving major success in his second stint.

Singapore Open had stumped them regularly because of the regular 'drift' inside the stadium, and the Indian pair had found it difficult to master that and overcome its impact. But in this edition, they managed to overcome that problem and managed their game plan in such a way that they could go all the way to the top of the podium.
