NEW DELHI: One look at World No. 1 men's singles shuttler Viktor Axelsen, and the word that comes to mind is imposing. Also known as 'The Great Dane', Axelsen is true to the moniker given to him.
The 29-year-old Axelsen, after reaching the court, marks his guard and stands bang in the middle – equidistant to all his sides from the baseline as well as the sidelines. It's a sight to see, to witness how an elite athlete is a stickler for perfection. Even an inch matters!
