Pramod Bhagat, a 5-time World Champion and Tokyo 2020 Paralympic gold medallist, arrives in Melbourne with strong momentum after winning triple gold at the 1st Abia Para Badminton International 2025. With numerous medals at the BWF Para-Badminton World Championships, Asian Para Games, and other major tournaments, Bhagat remains one of India’s most decorated para-athletes.

On his preparations, Bhagat said, “Every tournament is an opportunity to push my limits. I am confident of putting up a strong performance in Australia and look forward to making India proud once again.”

Sukant Kadam added, “Being World No.1 is a proud moment, but it also comes with greater responsibility. My focus now is on the Australian Para Badminton International, and I am determined to deliver my best performance for India.”
