Amin makes a smashing return but may still miss semis


SHUTTLER Mohd Amin Burhanuddin claimed his first win in the Paris Paralympics but it might not be enough for him to make it into the semi-finals.

Amin suffered a heartbreaking 21-17, 15-21, 20-22 defeat in his opening match against India’s Sukant Kadam in Group B in the men’s SL4 (lower body impairment) but showed great fighting spirit to recover well and beat Thailand’s Siripong Teamarrom 21-14, 22-20 in his second match at Adidas Arena in Port de la Chapelle yesterday.
