First of all,really a great win for Sindhu. Really ,well played.She dominated the match and was much the better player.In the 2nd set she went from 11-10 to 21-10 winning 10 points consecutively.Wow!!!
With this Result,She has proved again that she is a big match player and big Tournament player.She is all set and ready for Khel Ratna award and Pullela for next level of awards.Pullela and Dipa's Coach really deserve next level of awards respectively.
Regarding Chinese Domination, it is fading big time.Badminton has already been a disappointment for them with Possible Gold Medal Chance in just Men's Doubles and Men's Singles.No Gold for them in Women's Category.
However,biggest ever setback which they will face is No Gold Medal for them In Artistic Gymnastics.This will hurt them real badly.Both Men and Women didn't win a Gold.This Will hurt them.
Happy for Narsingh that he didn't face a career ending ban, but he must be mentally drained from so much unprecedented drama. It will be better to not expect big things from him at this juncture. He is human after all. Fingers crossed though.
I agree that Narsingh's situation is far from ideal.He is like a "Cornered Tiger now."In these situation people either Capitulate Tamely or Outperform themselves.There is hardly a mid way.Lets see what happens.H ope for the best.
I feel something not right in our olympics qualification mainly in athletics, . How can ones performance degrade in matter of few months. Take the case of Ranjith Maheswari, I read it somewhere that he has set the national record of 17.30 mtrs in 2015 and when it comes to olympics where performance matters most he jumped a distance of 16.13 !! I cant digest it. Same is the case for long jumper Ankit, Dyuthi, Tintu, srabani nanda, performance has decreased marginally when it comes to olympics.
There are unconfirmed various sources which says many athletes used some banned techniques like Drugs to raise their performance in domestic tournament and even federation knows about it .. it is just to show that Athletics is improving in India which is not ...

We need to consider Michelle Li (Canada) as well.. She is 20th ranked player . On her day, can defeat any top 10 player...
But I have good hopes from Yogeshwar.
Cmon India
