In his Paris Olympics debut, Lakshya Sen delivered a remarkable victory against the higher-seeded Jonatan Christie. Overcoming a 1-4 head-to-head disadvantage, Sen won 21-18, 21-12. Despite trailing early in the first game, Sen showcased impressive skills and determination to take control and secure the win. Mentored by Prakash Padukone and coached by Vimal Kumar, his recent training overhaul has paid off. Sen now looks forward to the knockout rounds, possibly facing fellow Indian HS Prannoy in the round of 16, as he aims for a medal.
