Srikanth's dream season continued as he brushed aside the challenge of Japan's Kenta Nishimoto in straight games to win the French Open Super Series mens singles title in Paris.
Srikanth, who beat his Japanese opponent 21-14, 21-13 in the summit clash, has now won four Super Series titles in a year.
"By registering series of victories, Srikanth has brought laurels to the two Telugu speaking states as well as the country," Narasimhan said.
The Governor wished Srikanth to continue to win many more tournaments in the future as well, a statement issued from Raj Bhavan said tonight.
