Lakshya Sen is in fiery form and will meet an opponent from Singapore!
Lakshya Sen has been enjoying a particularly good form ever since the BWF season has resumed for the year. The World No. 21 will meet Loh Kean Yew, the World No. 39 from Singapore.
Incidentally, this is the third meeting of the duo in the third straight tournament. At the Dutch Open 2021, it was Loh Kean Yew who won but at the French Open 2021, it was Lakshya who had the last word.
Overall, Lakshya leads the head to head at 2-1 and this will be the fourth career meeting between the two!
