Olympic bronze medallist Sakshi Malik crashed out in the first round while compatriot Vinesh Phogat's campaign also ended in a whimper as Indian grapplers continued with dismal show at World Wrestling Championship.
After three listless days, the onus was on Sakshi and Vinesh to end India's medal drought but both failed to live up to the expectations.
Srikanth Kidambi , P V Sindhu and Saina Nehwal reaches the quarter final of World Badminton Championship. While reaching the quarter final of the BWF World Badminton Championship Saina Nehwal becomes the first woman to reach the quarter final 7 successive times.
Finally some good news coming in.Sindhu has reached the Semi-finals which means she is assured of Atleast a bronze which will be her 3rd Medal at World Championships and she is only 22 yrs. (Touch wood and God bless her).
Boys and Girls(if any) History has been created.Saina Nehwal also through to the Semi-finals which means another Medal Assured.This means 2 Medals assured for us.Wow!This is the first time ever India will be bringing home 2 Medals from the World Championships.Epic!!
Slowly but Surely Badminton is becoming our National Game.
Even though I am jumping the gun,but it could get even better As Saina and Sindhu are in the opposite side of the draw.So,if both of them win their Semi Finals,it will mean that it will be an all Indian Final in the World' Championship.That would be Epic.
Even other than these two Queens,it has been quite a good performance from our Shuttles.They have been saving our Arse again and again.Their Consistency has been great over the past 5-7 years.Great going guys.
I will do a detailed analysis of their performance in this World Championships after the World Championships end.
Saina settles for a Bronze medal at the World Championships.Really excellent performance from her.She is a real Fighter.Better than most of the cricketers,i dont want to name them,yet these legends don"t get the attention, fame, credit etc they deserve.However,in the past few years things have improved but still it is no where close to what it should be.
In terms of her Personality(Humbleness),Her Persona(way she carries herself,attitude,fighting spirit,achievements,hardwork(nobody gave a shit about Badminton(she made everybody take notice of her and India,broke the Myth,no controversies etc) i feel nobody in this current Indian Cricket team is close to her.
People like Saina should be our Role Models instead of some Over Hyped Cricketers.
I wish all the very best to her and wish her luck for Future Events.She has brought unlimited Laurels to India.Truly one the best India has Produced.

Without the presence of Foreign players the Tournament Looses it's shine.It is very difficult to Market it.
Maybe they can reduce the number of Foreign players but removing them Completely would make it Difficult to market it.
I mean Cricket is a perfect example. Almost Nobody watches Ranji trophy but almost everybody watches IPL.
