How K. Srikanth Beat Lin Dan, a Badminton Record Holder Who Has Won 495 Out of 559
Matches.
The final of the China Open was simply a formality in the eyes of many. And this
was not only because of perception. It was actually cold, hard statistics that gave

made it as high as 13th in the world and facing him was Lin Dan -- a genius for
