Lakshya Sen came close to making history at the Paris Olympics, but missed out on a bronze medal in men's singles badminton. After losing to Viktor Axelsen in the semi-finals, Sen won the first game against Malaysia's Lee Zii Jia in the bronze medal match but lost the next two. This defeat means Sen won't join the ranks of Indian Olympic badminton medalists like PV Sindhu and Saina Nehwal. Despite the setback, the 22-year-old from Almora has an impressive resume, including a 2021 World Championships bronze, 2022 Commonwealth Games gold, and a Thomas Cup victory.
