The Indian pair got off to a good start against the world champions in the final held in Delhi. Repeated mistakes later backfired. Asian Games and Commonwealth Games gold medalists Satwik-Chirag lost to Kang-Seo 21-15, 11-21, 18-21 in the final which lasted one hour and five minutes.
The dream of the Satwik-Chirag combination of India Open title for the second time was shattered. The Indian pair had won the India Open title in 2022. Apart from Satwik-Chirag, no Indian pair has ever won the men’s doubles title at the India Open. Satwik-Chirag had earlier lost in the Malaysia Open 2024 final as well.
