US EditionAustralian Open 2025 Badminton: Lakshya Sen beats Yushi Tanaka to clinch title
Lakshya Sen secured his first title of 2025 and third BWF Super 500 crown by defeating Yushi Tanaka in 38 minutes, becoming the second Indian to win the Australian Open.
- On November 23, 2025, Lakshya Sen defeated Yushi Tanaka 21-15, 21-11 in Sydney to win the Australian Open final and claim his first title of the calendar year.
- After a season troubled by injury and inconsistency, Sen entered the tournament after a difficult 2025 marked by a 23 record and high expectations from last year's Olympics.
- Starting at the net, Sen controlled play before shifting to power, leading 11-9 at the interval, building an 11-5 advantage, and finishing the 38 minutes final decisively.
- The victory makes Sen only the second Indian man to win the Australian Open after Kidambi Srikanth in 2017, securing his third BWF Super 500 title and first outside India since July 2023.
- The win should boost Sen's confidence, providing a timely boost after a challenging year that he can build on in the off-season for next season.
