(Born December 22, 2008 • Hoshiarpur, Punjab)
At just 15 years old, Tanvi Sharma isn’t just playing badminton—she’s redefining India’s future in the sport. Fresh off a gold medal triumph at the 2024 Asia Team Championships and a pivotal role in India’s 2024 Uber Cup campaign, this phenom from Punjab is turning heads globally.
The Making of a Champion
Tanvi’s journey began in Hoshiarpur, where her mother, Meena Sharma (a former volleyball player at DC Complex), first handed her a racket. By age 8, she’d relocated to Hyderabad’s famed Gopichand Academy, training tirelessly as a non-scholarship athlete from 2016–2021. “Every drop of sweat was for this dream,” she reflects.
Breaking Records, Shattering Expectations
Despite her youth, Tanvi dominates both senior and junior circuits with stunning maturity:

The Road Ahead
Ranked #50 globally (as of 2024) and climbing, Tanvi eyes Paris 2028. Her record against elite players like China’s Wang Zhiyi (0–1) only fuels her fire. “Losses teach me more than wins,” she states.
Why She Matters:
“Tanvi represents a fearless new generation. Her agility and net play disrupt opponents twice her age.”
