TIL Desk Sports/ Newly crowned Denmark Open champion Kidambi Srikanth says he will be cutting down on the number of tournaments he competes in to be in best shape for the marquee events lined up next year.
“I really want to play a fixed number of tournaments and don’t want to play all the tournaments and push myself for the ranking,” said Srikanth who outclassed 37-year-old Lee Hyun II in a lop-sided final to clinch the Denmark Open title on Sunday night.
“I will play around 10 tournaments and then play the Commonwealth and the Asian Games, the World Championship and then there is Syed Modi which is compulsory and PBL, so it would make it 15-17 tournaments anyway,” he said.
Srikanth capped an impressive week with a 21-10 21-5 win over Lee in the finals. “I am happy with the way it went for me, it was fantastic. I beat some tough players this week. I can’t even say it was a dream come true because I never dreamt of winning three titles this year. I really want to continue playing well,” Srikanth said.
