Kolkata. Indian shuttler and Olympic medalist PV Sindhu has not had a good start at the Singapore Open. Olympic medalist PV Sindhu and Malaysia Masters winner HS Prannoy suffered first round exits. Defending champion PV Sindhu had to put up a tough fight against world number one Akane Yamaguchi of Japan but even then she was bowed out of the tournament.
Coach came to the rescue
Many questions have also started to arise regarding the form of PV Sindhu, who failed to perform strongly in the Singapore Open. India’s chief badminton coach Pullela Gopichand has defended PV Sindhu on all these matters. Pullela Gopichand feels two-time Olympic medalist PV Sindhu’s inconsistent performance after returning from injury should not be a cause for concern.
Sindhu suffered yet another first round defeat on Tuesday when she crashed out of the Singapore Open against world number one Akane Yamaguchi. Gopichand said, “She is a very young player, she is just 26-27 years old. That’s why there should be nothing to worry about. She is starting to play well. I hope he plays well in future. Sindhu, who won a silver medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics and a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics, had suffered an ankle injury last year, which had also pushed her out of the top 10 in the BWF women’s singles rankings. Due to this injury, she was away from the game for four months.

Men’s doubles pair of MR Arjun and Dhruv Kapila, however, managed to get past the pair of Lucas Karvy and Ronan Labar 21-16 21-15 in their first round encounter.
