Meanwhile, Lakshya, the gold medallist from Commonwealth Games (CWG) 2022, will be India's biggest hope for a podium finish. He is also the bronze medallist from the previous edition. This time, Lakshya is in red-hot form after being runners-up in All England and German Open and winning the India Open 2022. He was also a part of the Indian team that won the Thomas Cup title this year after beating 14-time champions Indonesia.

In world championships, the biggest challenger for Lakshya would be World No.1 and top seed Viktor Axelsen, who is also the gold medallist from Tokyo Olympics 2020. An All England Open Champion, Axelsen is on a 31-match winning streak since March this season. Interestingly, his last loss was to Lakshya in the German Open semifinal.

Ninth seed Lakshya would also face stiff competition from defending champion Loh Kean Yew (eighth seed), Anders Antonsen (third seed) of Denmark, and Lee Zii Jia (fifth seed) of Malaysia. In the first round, Lakshya will face H.K. Vittinghus of Denmark.

Another big hope for India in men's singles will be Srikanth, who is the silver medallist from last edition. He won the bronze at CWG 2022 and might face Lakshya in the quarterfinal of the tournament if both shuttlers win their respective matches in earlier rounds.

In men's doubles, the World no. 7 pair of Chirag Shetty and Satwiksairaj Rankireddy will be leading India's campaign. Gold medallists in CWG 2022 and Thomas Cup title winners, the duo has got everything in its arsenal this time to claim the gold at the tournament.
