However, Viktor Axelsen hasn’t been in his best form this year. He was eliminated in the semi-final by Shi Yuqi at the Malaysia Open. Later, he pulled out of the India Open due to illness.

He wrote on social media, “Hi all, After my match on Saturday I’ve been laying in bed Ill and after talking with the medical team present here in Malaysia, I’ve been advised to get additional checkup. That means that I unfortunately won’t be able to travel and be present at India Open this year, which is rather disappointing as it has been a tournament where I’ve loved to play in front of the Indian badminton fans.”

He returned to action at the French Open, where he suffered a disappointing loss in the second round against Taiwan’s Wang Tzu-wei. Nevertheless, the Danish shuttler will be looking forward to getting in shape before the 2024 Paris Olympics.
