Amazing win!
Sindhu completely dominated the match and Okuhara just seemed helpless in regaining her form. I think Sindhu’s match with World No. 2 Tai Tzu Ying in quarter finals proved to be a crucial win for Sindhu. After first game loss and 2 hard fought games Sindhu won 12-21, 23-21, 21-19.
A surprise early exit of World No. 1 Akane Yamaguchi also worked in Sindhu’s favor.
The semi-final match against Chen Yu Fei 21-7, 21-14 and Finals against Okuhara, both the matches were just Sindhu at her best.
Sindhu’s pursuit for the Gold at BWF World Badminton Championship eluded her since 2013.
