India’s Satviksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty again in the final of China Masters (Super 750)! In the semi-finals, the star men’s doubles pair of India won by defeating the Azrin-Tan pair of Malaysia by 21-16, 18-21, 21-11. In the three-game fight that lasted for 1 hour and 6 minutes, the opponents turned around in the second game, but Satvik-Chirag returned to their familiar aggressive rhythm in the decisive third game.
Satvik-Chirag became only the second men’s doubles pair in the history of China Masters to reach the final for the third time. Earlier they reached the finals of this tournament in 2023 and 2025, but both times they were runners-up. This time, they have not only the final but also the goal of the much-desired first title of the China Masters.
This is their third final this year. That is, as the year progresses, the continuity of the Indian pair in the title fight is becoming more evident. Their strength is not only in attack, but also in the mindset of coping with pressure on the big stage.
