Things don’t always go according to our plans, but a change of plans may be an example of synchronicity, the mysterious set of coincidental circumstances that lead us to a life fulfillment unguessed and unsought. Perhaps for a better tomorrow. When the World No. 6 pair Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty failed to live up to expectations in the Asian leg of the tour before they arrived at the Istora for Indonesia Open, all hope seemed lost. Following a string of very ordinary performances at the Sudirman Cup, the top-ranked doubles Indian pair bowed out in the first round of the Singapore Open and the second round at the Thailand Open.
Perhaps, they didn`t give up too soon. Or, believed that things will work out well in the end. And they certainly did, as our very own `Sat-Chi` came off with flying colours at the Istora. The duo went on to become the first Indian pair to win a Super 1000 title, the Indonesia Open.
