World Championship: Sindhu Storms Into Round Of 16; Dhruv-Tanisha Pair Too Progress
BWF World Championships: PV Sindhu showcased her trademark grit and resilience to reach the round of 16 at the BWF World Championships 2025, defeating Malaysia’s Karupathevan Letshanaa 21-19, 21-15 in a gripping women’s singles Round of 32 contest at the Adidas Arena.
The Indian, ranked World No. 15, appeared momentarily off pace in the mid-stages of the first game, playing the chasing game against her younger opponent. Letshanaa, making her debut at this level, impressed with her authority on court, moving Sindhu around and forcing uncharacteristic errors. The Malaysian built a commanding 18-12 lead, appearing set to take the opener.
However, Sindhu displayed the heart of a champion, echoing her performance from the previous day. She reeled off six consecutive points to close the gap, stunning Letshanaa and swinging momentum in her favor.
