Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Sunday congratulated ace shuttler PV Sindhu for winning the BWF world tour title.
Hailing Sindhu as the “pride” of the country, Rao wished that she would bring many more laurels to the country and the state in future, an official release said.
Sindhu became the first Indian to win BWF World Tour Finals at Guangzhou when she defeated Japan’sNozomi Okuhara 21-19 21-17.
Expressing his happiness over her feat, Sindhu’s father PV Ramana described her victory as amazing.
He said in the year-end she has proved that she is not “silver Sindhu”, but she is a “golden girl” of badminton.
“She had gone there with the confidence of winning the title. She beat the top players, who were ranked higher than her. This is an amazing victory and I am very happy about it”, he said.
Ramana further said that Sindhu played the matches in a cool manner and with patience. “She played a matured and well-planned game”, he added.
