Coach Park Tae-Sang has guided 17-year-old Tanvi Sharma and 26-year-old Ashmita Chaliha to consecutive BWF Super 300 titles. Tanvi won the Taipei Open last Sunday, while Ashmita, returning from a career-threatening knee injury, claimed the Korea Masters seven days later. Park previously worked with PV Sindhu for four years, a partnership that ended with her Tokyo Olympics bronze medal. Park told PTI that the titles are stepping stones towards higher-level tournaments and the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics qualifying race, which begins on May 1 next year. After three years at the National Centre of Excellence in Guwahati, he wants both players to improve their endurance, mental strength and on-court speed. He also sees rising competition from Devika Sihag, Unnati Hooda and other Indian singles players as a useful force.
