Ayush Shetty draws defending champion Shi Yuqi in BWF World Championships openerIndia's shuttlers face a mixed draw at the BWF World Championships, with Ayush Shetty taking on defending champion Shi Yuqi in the opening round. India is hosting the BWF world championships after a gap of 17-years and the live draw took place in the National Capital on Wednesday. While India is aiming to win multiple medals on their home turf, all eyes would be on five-time world championships medallist PV Sindhu, who has struck form in the run-up to the Championships by winning the Japan Open last month. It will be a big first round clash between Shi Yuqi and Ayush Shetty and given Ayush’s attacking game it is better to play Shi first up than later in the tournament,” he added. Ayush has lost to the reigning world champion in all their three meetings but has run the Chinese close when they met earlier in the draw.
