Lakshya Sen: One for future

Lakshya’s rise has been tremendous and he’s alrey been marked as one for future. maturity in his game seems to be well beyond his and his erness to take game by scruff of neck are qualities that earmark him as one of greatest talents. He won both Dutch Open and SaarLorLux Open being a set down, which takes some doing for a player of his inexperience. Sen would look to make most of his good form in upcoming tournaments and keep raising bar for himself. He is likely to take part in Irish Open and Scottish Open, both of which are International Challenge events. He will n feature in Syed Modi International Super 300 which kicks off in late vember.
