Rashid: Hard to predict who will win singles title in Paris


The one to beat: China’s Shi Yuqi has grown to be a solid contender for the gold medal at the Paris Olympics.

PETALING JAYA: Former great Datuk Rashid Sidek says it is anyone’s game in the men’s singles at the Olympic Games in Paris although a few of them have been more dominant than the others.

Defending champion Viktor Axelsen of Denmark was unbeatable at one stage of his life while China’s Shi Yuqi has grown to be a solid contender for the gold at the Games from July 26-Aug 11 at the Adidas Arena in Porte de la Chapelle.
