His world championship debut was a decade ago. However, triumph eluded the badminton star more than ever. For the next consecutive world championships, he would fall short of a win. And it is as much as ten long years. This year, the tenth year since his debut, he registered his first win at the world championship. The World number 104 finally tasted the scoop of victory.

With the Pan American games right here, he is looking forward to tasting the victory once again. He is ready for the challenge ahead as he breaks out of his winning drought. And with his latest update, he very much looks set on that goal.

On the way to maintaining the winning streak

Howard Shu is in high spirits and bright with confidence after the recent victory. As the Pan Am games are right at the door, some teams have reached Santiago, Chile. Shu, an Olympian badminton player for Team USA, has also set foot at the games village. Recently, he posted a video from the games village to give a sneak peek of his preparations for the games. The caption reads, “Some coordination work in the Pan Am Games Village”.

In the video, Shu was practicing his hand-eye coordination with the help of tennis balls. With the game closing in, Shu is ready to take on his opponents. He will look forward to repeating his performance against Anuoluwapo Juwon Opeyori at the world championship. He defeated the Nigerian player in a very close match with the scoreboard reading 21-18 13-21 21-19. With his last win in Pan Am Games in Lima in 2019, Shu will be looking forward to continuing that medal run.
