**Indian Shuttlers See Mixed Results at Malaysia Masters Qualifiers**
**Kuala Lumpur, May 20, 2025** – Veteran Indian shuttler Kidambi Srikanth secured his place in the main draw of the Malaysia Masters Super 500 tournament today. The former world number one battled back after a first-game loss to defeat Chinese Taipei’s Huang Yu Kai (9-21, 21-12, 21-6) in a hard-fought second qualifying round. He previously defeated Kuo Kuan Lin of Taipei (21-8, 21-13) to advance. Srikanth now faces a tough challenge against sixth-seeded Lu Guang Zu of China in the main draw.
However, it was a day of mixed fortunes for other Indian hopefuls. Tharun Mannepalli, S Sankar Muthusamy Subramanian, and Anmol Kharb were all eliminated during the singles qualifiers. The mixed doubles team of Mohit Jaglan and Lakshita Jaglan also failed to advance.
Despite these setbacks, top Indian players PV Sindhu and HS Prannoy are set to begin their campaigns at the $475,000 tournament tomorrow, May 21, 2025. Fans will be eagerly watching to see if they can improve India’s performance at the Malaysia Masters.
