Ace shuttlers Pramod Bhagat and Sukant Kadam struck gold in the men’s doubles at the 2023 Brazil Para-Badminton International. Pramod had to settle for silver in singles, while Sukant secured bronze in singles.

Pramod Bhagat and Sukant Kadam defeated the Korean pair of Joo Dongjae and Shin Kyung Hwan in the men’s doubles, SL 3–SL 4. The finals were tight, but the India pair closed the game in straight sets. Both Pramod and Sukant played their best games of the tournament; the final score read 22-20, 21-19, helping them secure gold. Pramod could not repeat his performance in the singles SL3 category finals, as he went down to fellow Indian Kuma Nitesh and had to settle for silver. The final score was 12-21 and 13-21.

Speaking about the same thing, Pramod Bhagat said, “I am happy with my performance, but there is still scope for improvement. I had a bad day in singles, and I would like to congratulate Nitesh for playing exceptionally well.”

On the other hand, Sukant secured a bronze in his singles SL4 category. Talking about the same, Sukant said, “I am happy with my doubles performance, but I need to work harder on my singles game. I have identified my mistakes in this tournament and will work hard to not repeat them.”

Pramod and Sukant’s coach, Shiba Prasad Das, said, “Both Pramod and Sukant played well, but there is a lot of scope for improvement. I have spoken to them and told them about the mistakes they committed. We will head back to India and immediately start working on them and prepare for our next tournament.”
