    Japan Open Super: Former world champion and two-time Olympic medallist shuttler PV Sindhu clinched her first BWF Tour title in two years after beating familiar foe and home favourite Akane Yamaguchi to win her maiden Japan Open Super 750 badminton tournament on Sunday.

    Sindhu registered a 21-17, 21-17 win over four-time champion Yamaguchi here at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium. Moreover, Sindhu became the first Indian to win a Japan Open.

    This is the former world champion's first BWF World Tour title after winning Syed Modi in December 2024. Moreover, the title triumph ended Sindhu's seven-year wait to win the Super 750 or above title.
