Lakshya Sen’s Career in Numbers: Records, stats, and Titles
Shivam
The 21-year-old seems to be India’s best bet to replace HS Prannoy as the No. 1 men’s singles player in future.
Lakshya Sen is India’s next poster boy in the men’s singles event of badminton. Currently World No. 23 in the BWF men’s singles rankings, Lakshya Sen has had an awful 2023 season. Ever since the end of the Commonwealth Games, the form of the youngster has seen him fall down the pecking orders. His form forced the BAI to keep him as one of the backups for Kidambi Srikanth and HS Prannoy for the Sudirman Cup 2023.
However, the youngster has it in him to fight back and get back in the same run of form that saw him reach the finals of the All England Open Championships and German Open while winning the Indian Open – all in the same season. And to top it all, he played a key role in helping the Indian side win the historic Thomas Cup 2022 title. Around this period, the 21-year-old broke into the top 10 of the BWF rankings before finally dropping off in January 2023.
With Lakshya Sen, Priyanshu Rajawat, and the recent emergence of Kiran George, the Indian badminton fraternity seems set to continue having talents in the men’s singles BWF circuit for the future years to come.
