Old is gold: India’s singles shuttler H.S. Prannoy plods on to make a difference in the Olympics. — IZZRAFIQ ALIAS/The Star
PETALING JAYA: Late bloomer H.S. Prannoy and Taiwan’s Chou Tien-chen are some of the evergreen shuttlers who are set to end their Olympics journey in Paris but their rivals will not be fooled if they are merely here to make up the numbers.
