All England

Gayatri Gopichand and Treesa Jolly upset Worlds silver medalists Lee Sohee and Shing Seungchan to reach the All England semifinals.

Gayatri: After we lost the first game and were down 18-20 in the second, we thought we have to fight. What makes the Indians a dangerous pair for any pedigreed opponent is their fearless approach and ability to turn around unfavorable situations soon enough, like they did on Friday - saving two match points to win the second game and force a decider. Treesa rains steep smashes from the back of the court while Gayatri is the quick thinker and snappy interceptor at the net. They're ranked 46 in the world today, the second-highest Indian women's doubles pair after Ashwini Ponnappa and Sikki Reddy. She was part of the Indian women's team that won gold at the South Asian Games in 2019 and brought home a silver in the singles event. Gayatri used to dabble in both singles and doubles before she chose her calling.

However, both players are in sharp form and it promises to be a thriller. Fast forward six years, they are slated to meet on a bigger stage and this time Zii Jia is the defending champion.

India's upstart women's doubles pair of Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand will take on another unseeded pair – China's Zhang Shu Xian and Zheng Yu – in the ...

Momota, a two-time former world champion (2018 and 2019), was strongly favoured to reach Saturday's semi-finals at the expense of his conqueror of last year, Lee Zii Jia. However, he lost to Lee by a 21-7, 13-21, 21-11 margin to squeeze into semis. Antonsen, after losing the first game, appeared less confident than usual at the net, and the Indian dictated the pace and trend of the rallies all through, except for a small patch in mid-game when he lost his concentration briefly. Yes, Chirag had a stroke of wretched luck when the shuttle got stuck in the strings of his racket as he was executing a perfectly good smash return at 20-18. Lakshya's coach, Vimal Kumar, had, however, been wary of the unpredictable 25-year-old Chinese player, and had given his ward only a 50:50 chance of beating the latter. Indian supporters have now been left with the prospect of seeing their upstart women's doubles pair of Treesa and Gayatri take on another unseeded pair — China's Zhang Shu Xian and Zheng Yu — in the semi-final. Even when Satwik and Chirag held a potentially game-winning lead of 20-15 in the opening stanza, they continued to appear jumpy and ill-at-ease, and never seemed really confident of bagging the game, whereas nothing disturbed the poker-faced calm on the faces of their Indonesian opponents.
