KUALA LUMPUR, July 3 —World number one men’s singles shuttler Viktor Axelsen is elated to finally win his first Malaysia Open Badminton Championship title after making his debut in the 2012 edition.
After being eliminated in the first round in his first four attempts , Axelsen’s best achievement was reaching the quarter-finals three times . Axelsen admitted that playing former legends like Malaysia’s Datuk Lee Chong Wei, and Chen Long and Lin Dan of China in the past had helped him to elevate his game to be among the best in the sport now.
"I am a bit surprised with my level today and the match in general. It is great to see and play Momota in another major final. I respect him as a great player, but today I think I played really well. Maybe he was not comfortable,” he said, adding that he has not decided on playing in the Malaysia Masters scheduled for July 5-10.
