Liang Wei Keng and Wang Chang let the first game go after Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty opened up a lead at a crucial juncture.

They more than made up for it in the second game to force a decider before completely blowing away the Indians to avenge their group stage loss. 

The flick serves from Liang was a bit too much to handle for the Indians, who unfortunately can't progress into the final despite winning three-in-a-row in the group stages.

The loss means that Satwik-Chirag will end their 2025 season without a title. This is for the first time since 2021 that they have had to wait for so long for a World Tour triumph.

This was also the first time since 2021 that they qualified for the BWF World Tour Finals...that tells a lot, doesn't it?

Satwik-Chirag had dropped as low as 27 in the world rankings in May, but bounced back with a string of very solid performances. Despite not winning a title, one can't ignore the fact that they look a much more rounded pair now.

A title could be just around the corner!
