This one is a special one, in September 2024 harry injured his ACL at a tournament, he had to undergo surgery and missed the entire 2025 season. During that time he has worked through his rehab, got himself back on court and back playing competitive badminton which is amazing! We are all so
Proud of the determination and dedication he has shown to get back to this level, and this weekend is only the beginning!
