Kidambi Srikanth finishes as the runner-up at the US Open Badminton tournament (men’s singles), losing the final to Chinese Taipei’s Su Li-yang. Across the sources, Srikanth is described as a former world number one who extends his wait for a BWF World Tour title after coming up short in the championship match. The Times of India reports the match scores as 15-21, 21-16, 9-21, with Srikanth winning the second game after initially trailing and then pushing for a deciding game. However, Su’s play is described as decisive in the final game. NDTV also reports that Srikanth loses in the final to Su Li-yang, keeping him from clinching the title. Times of India further notes that the win is Su Li-yang’s first-ever BWF World Tour title, while Srikanth settles for second place. Both accounts agree on the outcome and the matchup in the men’s singles final.
