Lakshya Sen Vs Kunlavut Vitidsarn Live Score, Thailand Open 2026 Quarter-Final: Indian Shuttler Eyes Top 10 Spot

Lakshya Sen is on the verge of breaking back into the top 10 at the Thailand Open 2026. A win over Kunlavut Vitidsarn in the semi-finals would be key to achieving that jump, with Sen previously reaching a career-best World No. 6 in 2022.

The task is tough against the Thai second seed, who has dominated recent meetings, but Sen arrives in strong form and with a big ranking opportunity on the line.

Elsewhere, PV Sindhu also had a chance to push forward but came up short against Akane Yamaguchi.

India’s top men’s doubles pair Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty have advanced to the Thailand Open semi-finals, where they will take on Malaysia’s third seeds Goh Sze Fei and Nur Izzuddin.

The top-seeded Indians are in strong form and now face a tough test against one of the most consistent pairs on the circuit, with a place in the final at stake.

In what is arguably the match of the day, seventh-seeded Lakshya Sen faces a monumental challenge against home favorite and second seed Kunlavut Vitidsarn. Kunlavut, a former World Champion and Paris 2024 silver medalist, holds a 7-4 head-to-head advantage over the Indian.

Lakshya enters this clash following a commanding 21-12, 21-13 win over China's Zhu Xuan Chen. To overcome the Thai star’s exceptional defense and tactical precision, Lakshya will need to maintain the high-intensity attacking game that saw him through the earlier rounds.

The Thailand Open 2026 quarter-final will be available for live telecast on the Star Sports Select channels. The live streaming will be available on the JioHotstar mobile app and website.
