Axelsen Out, Gukesh in Action, and Badminton Highlights


The world of sports is abuzz with several key developments, particularly in badminton and chess.

In badminton, Olympic champion Viktor Axelsen has announced his withdrawal from the BWF World Tour Finals due to a foot injury. Axelsen, who has won the tournament five times, expressed his disappointment but prioritized his health to avoid long-term issues. This news comes as a significant blow to the tournament, which is set to take place in Hangzhou, China from December 13-17, 2024[2][4].

On the Indian sports front, PV Sindhu is set to tie the knot on December 22, marking a personal milestone for the renowned badminton player. In other badminton news, the Punjab State Senior Badminton Championship concluded with local players dominating the event. Manya Ralhan and Mridul Jha were among the top performers, each winning two gold medals in their respective categories[5].

In chess, the World Chess Championship is ongoing, with D Gukesh facing off against Ding Liren. After a rest day, the championship resumed with Gukesh and Ding level at 3-3 after game 6. This highly anticipated match is a significant event in the chess calendar[1][4].

Additionally, the All Stars Mega Badminton Championship in Nigeria is gearing up to start on December 11, 2024. This tournament promises to be a landmark event with over ₦9 million in cash prizes, the largest payday ever seen in Nigerian badminton. The event has seen overwhelming participation, with over 100 players registered for the men’s singles alone[3].
