Badminton: HS Prannoy secures bronze

Prannoy HS made history as the second Indian men’s singles badminton player to secure a bronze medal at the Asian Games in 41 years. This achievement came after his defeat with scores of 16-21, 9-21 in the semifinal against the Chinese favorite, Li Shi Feng, in Hangzhou, China, on Friday. The last Indian to achieve this feat was Syed Modi, who won the bronze medal in the 1982 edition of the Asian Games.
