Lakshya Sen,1st Indian to reach Olympic men's singles semi-final

Lakshya Sen made history on Friday when he became the first Indian to reach the men's singles semi-finals at the Olympics. In a hardly fought quarterfinal played across 75 minutes, Lakshya defeated Chou Chen of China; the final score read 19-21, 21-15, 21-12. Overall, he became the third Indian to achieve this feat after Saina Nehwal and PV Sindhu; the latter is the only Indian shuttler to have played in the final.

Lakshya Sen is now one win away from confirming a medal in his maiden Olympics appearance. The Almorah shuttler is carrying the hopes of Indian badminton as he is the lone shuttle remaining in the fray at the Paris Games. Gold medal contenders Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty lost in the men's doubles quarter-final on Thursday while two-time medalist PV Sindhu was shown the door in women's singles Round of 16.
