After a solid time in Lucknow for the Syed Modi International, badminton action will now move to Assam with the Guwahati Masters. Being held between December 5-10, the Super 100 promises some exciting matches, and $100,000 in prize money.
There will be a staggering amount of players representing India at the tournament, with a decent mix of seniors and rising stars.
Aakarshi Kashyap and Ashmita Chaliha will lead the charge in the women's singles event, accompanied by Malvika Bansod, Tanya Hemanth, Unaati Hooda, Anupama Upadhyay, and more.
Meanwhile, Kiran George, Sai Praneeth, and Sameer Verma spearhead the challenge for the men's singles.
India's best shot at a podium in the tournament is probably the women's doubles, with the participation of Treesa Jolly/Gayathri Gopichand and Ashwini Ponnappa/Tanisha Crasto, the first and second seeds, respectively.
Ponnappa and Rohan Kapoor will take to the court for mixed doubles alongside Sikki and Sumeeth Reddy, while Dhruv Kapila/Vishnuvardhan Goud and Sai Pratheek/Krishna Garaga enter the men's doubles.
