India's badminton legend, Prakash Padukone, believes the star duo Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty have a chance of returning with an Olympic gold.
The world number three ranked duo punched their ticket for the quarter-finals of badminton doubles with a straight-game win over Indonesia's Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Rian Ardianto.
Satwik and Chirag have roared and soared high in the world of badminton as a pair. They have toppled numerous records and lifted various titles before landing in Paris.
They looked flawless in their technique and style throughout the group stage. In their quest for a medal in the men's doubles event, Malaysia's Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik stand in their way.
Ahead of the highly anticipated fixture, Prakash backed the duo to go all the way to the final on the back of their impressive outings.
"As they are playing, there is a chance. There are definitely chances of winning the medal. But you can't say it with surety. They have come to the quarter-finals. The way they are playing, they have good chances of winning," Prakash told ANI.
