It’s Kidambi Srikanth’s second win over Lin Dan. File photo
Odense (Denmark), October 19
Kidambi Srikanth defeated the legendary Lin Dan for the second time in his career to set up an all-Indian quarterfinal against Sameer Verma at the Denmark Open. World No. 6 Srikanth bounced back to beat the world No. 14 from China 18-21 21-17 21-16 in the second-round clash on Thursday night.
Dan, a two-time Olympic gold medallist and five-time world champion, is certainly not the player he used to be but is still a force to reckon with. Srikanth had famously scored his maiden win over Dan to win the 2014 China Open. With this win, Srikanth has a 2-3 head-to-head record against the Chinese legend. — PTI
