Wang Zhi Yi fought well till the end but Sindhu’s early advantage in the final game played a crucial role in the latter’s victory.
This was her third championship of the year—after winning two Super 300 crowns at the Syed Modi International and Swiss Open—and it was another addition to her brimming trophy case; including two Olympic medals and two gold, two silver, and two bronze medals from the World Championships.
From fans to famous personalities congratulate PV Sindhu on Twitter for the great win.
