Indian badminton's golden girl P V Sindhu continued her golden run as she triumphed at the Korea Open on Sunday.
Sindhu registered a hardfought 22-20, 11-21, 20-18 and saw off eighth seed Okuhara in an energy-sapping contest that lasted an hour and 23 minutes to exact sweet revenge of her heart-wrenching World Championship final loss to the Japanese at Glasgow last month.
Sindhu displayed dogged determination and great stubbornness to lay claim to her third super series title of her career.
World No 4 Sindhu, who had clinched the 2016 China Super Series Premier and India Super Series and Syed Modi Grand Prix Gold this season, thus dashed Okuhara's bid to win her third straight title after winning the Australian Open and the World Championship.
Join us in congratulating Sindhu on her wonderful achievement.
