Former world number one Kidambi Srikanth will spearhead the Indian challenge at the Thailand Masters 2025 badminton tournament starting from Tuesday at Nimibutr Stadium in Pathumwan. Srikanth, the world number 45, will start his campaign with a match against world No.74 Daniil Dubovenko from Israel, as per Olympics.com.
The 31-year-old Indian veteran, who sustained a loss to compatriot Mithun Manjunath in the second round of this competition last year, has been battling poor form, having not made it past the quarterfinals since the Swiss Open semifinals back in March last year. Ayush Shetty, Tharun Mannepalli, Sankar Subramanian, Sathish Karunakaran, Meiraba Maisnam, Rithvik Sanjeevi and Mithun Manjunath will also feature in the men's singles event at the Thailand Masters.
