Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty created history by becoming the first Indian pair to win the Singapore Open doubles title. The former world No. 1 duo defeated Indonesia's Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Shohibul Fikri 18-21, 21-17, 21-16 in the men's doubles final of the BWF Super 750 tournament on Sunday. The Indian pair recovered after losing the opening game and dominated the final two games with aggressive attacking play. The victory added another milestone to their successful partnership, giving them a ninth World Tour title and a third Super 750 crown. The triumph also highlighted their return to top form after a series of runner-up finishes over the past two seasons.
