Badminton: Tanvi, Srikanth To Spearhead India's Challenge At Korea Masters 2026
Rakshitha Sree Santhosh Ramraj: Fresh from winning her maiden BWF World Tour title, teenage sensation Tanvi Sharma will lead India's campaign alongside former world No. 1 Kidambi Srikanth at the Korea Masters 2026 badminton tournament, which gets underway in Asan on Tuesday.
Having won the Taipei Open title on Sunday, the 17-year-old is going to South Korea in top form, thus becoming the fourth Indian woman to win a BWF Super 300 or higher title after Saina Nehwal, P.V. Sindhu and Devika Sihag, by beating Nguyen Thuy Linh of Vietnam in the final.
Since P.V. Sindhu, the two-time Olympic medallist, is taking a break and Unnati Hooda is not attending the tournament, Tanvi, who is third-seeded, will be the highest-ranked Indian player in the women's singles section. Anmol Kharb, Malvika Bansod, Ashmita Chaliha, Aakarshi Kashyap, Rakshitha Sree Santhosh Ramraj, Isharani Baruah, Shriyanshi Valishetty, Tanya Hemanth and Mansi Singh will also be taking part.
