Badminton sensation P V Sindhu hopes winning the year-end World Tour Finals should silence her critics, who labelled her as a mere silver-winning player.Sindhu prevailed 21-19 21-17 over Japan\u2019s Nozomi Okuhara in the summit clash to claim the coveted title , last month in Guangzhou.<\/p>\n
\u201cLast year too I had entered the finals and I was not satisfied with the Finals outcome. I played positively and won the title. I was happy and also hoped there would not be further criticism of I being a mere silver-winning player,\u201d Sindhu told reporters here.<\/p>\n
Asked if she changed her strategy while playing in Gunagzhou, Sindhu said she played her own game and tried winning each point, because the 2017 World Champion Okuhara had given her a tough fight.<\/p>\n
She further said the All England Badminton Championship is one of the biggest events and it \u201cwould not be easy\u201d for any top player to win the title. \u201cShe is doing good. I was happy when I won against her in world tour finals. Definitely, it is just that who plays good on that day is a winner. You always have to be confident and positive to do things.\u201d Asked the reason for the rise of non-Chinese players, Sindhu said it is because of equal competence among 20 top players of the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
