Keep meet #3 and #4 WP:NBADMINTON. He was the bronze medalist at the 2016 Brazil Open. #3 Brazil Open was the highest international singles/doubles championships in Brazil in 2016. #4 Brazil Open was the BWF sanctioned Grand Prix tournament.Stvbastian (talk) 12:01, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Brazil Open was definitely not the highest international tournament held in Brazil in 2016. That would be the 2016 Brazil Open Grand Prix. If they are the same event (which they might be due to the similar names), Sankeerth did not medal at the event. Ergo because he did not medal there it would also make #4 moot. @Stvbastian Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 14:32, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes i mean the 2016 Brazil Open Grand Prix. You can check it again in the men's doubles section. He was third in that tournament.Stvbastian (talk) 15:17, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep passes WP:GOLDENRULE. Notable person, Accesscrawl (talk) 12:52, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please enlighten this discussion with independent, significant coverage of the subject? @Accesscrawl Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 14:28, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep He won a medal in the doubles competition at the Brazil Open Grand Prix, which appears to be the same tournament as the Brazil Open. Sportsfan 1234 is correct that he did not win a medal in the singles competition. Nonetheless, that's enough. Smartyllama (talk) 14:56, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Meets NBADMINTON due to competition in a major tournament. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 02:22, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep notable badminton player. If a reliable source like The Hindu says he won two medals, means he won medals. We don't need to have elaborated coverage on that. Dial911 (talk) 16:17, 6 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
