Dechapol Puavaranukroh and Sapsiree Taerattanachai are just two wins from a unique moment in badminton. History will dictate that the COVID-19 era, season-ending triple headers we have seen in Bangkok and now Bali this year may never be witnessed again. Certainly not both in the same year.
Having claimed a hat-trick of wins at home in January, the world No.2 Thais are in the box seat to repeat that dose. Friday night's knockout draw for the HSBC BWF World Tour Finals 2021 sees them face Malaysians Chan Peng Soon and Goh Liu Ying in Saturday’s semifinals, a match-up in which they’ve won the last two in.
On the opposite side of the draw are Puavaranukroh and Taerattanachai’s vanquished opponents from the past two weeks at the DAIHATSU Indonesia Masters and Indonesia Open 2021.
