People Said ‘What’s Happening? Is It Done?’ But I Believed In Myself: Sindhu
The two-time Olympic medallist defeated Japan's Akane Yamaguchi 21-17, 21-17 in the final at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium to clinch her first BWF World Tour title since December 2023 and become the first Indian to win the prestigious tournament. Speaking after the victory, Sindhu admitted the triumph carried immense personal significance after months of hard work and questions over her form.
"I had tears in my eyes because it was very important for me to win. I was working really hard on myself and kept believing that I can do it. Even though a lot of people were like ‘What’s happening? Is it done?’, I believed in myself, and I would like to thank my family, coaches and the support staff; both sets of families; my parents and my in-laws; and, of course, my husband is always there even at my lowest. People around me have guided me really well, I’m really thankful,” Sindhu told the media after the game.
