BWF World Junior C'ships: Indian Shuttlers Eye Individual Glory After Historic Mixed Team Bronze
Asian Junior Champions Chen Jun: Riding high on their historic bronze medal finish in the mixed team event, the Indian contingent will now look to carry that momentum into the individual events of the BWF World Junior Championships that get underway at the National Centre of Excellence here on Monday.
India bagged their first-ever mixed team bronze medal by beating former champions Korea in the quarterfinals earlier this week and the 25-member contingent is now gearing up to build on that momentum with an aim to grab as many medals as possible in the individual events.
India’s best performance in the BWF World Juniors came 17 years ago in Pune when Saina Nehwal grabbed the girls’ singles gold while RMV Guru Sai Dutt clinched the bronze medal in boys’ singles. So far, India has won a total of 11 individual medals in the history of the competition, including four silver.
