Viktor Axelsen – fourth seed
For all his early promise, the 22-year-old Viktor Axelsen still has not been able to break the duck in Superseries finals, despite reaching a whopping six of them. All he probably needs is a slice of luck. And if the Singapore Open once again witnesses a carnage of the top seeds like it did in 2015, the young Dane might just have his way.
Without a doubt, Axelsen has been in pretty good form this year and has reached the final of the India Open, besides two other Superseries quarter-finals. That shows he will not surrender easily.
The fourth seed will be locking horns with Hong Kong’s Wei Nan in his opener.
