Sindhu goes down to An Seyoung, finishes runner up in BWF World Tour Finals

The Hindu  

Indian badminton ace P V Sindhu lost to Korean teen sensation An Seyoung in a one-sided final at the BWF World Tour Finals, here on Sunday. Sindhu, the reigning world champion and two-time Olympic medallist, could neither match the pace nor breach the defence of the world number six Korean, losing 16-21 12-21 in the 40-minute lop-sided clash.

The second game started on an even keel with Sindhu managing to take a 5-4 lead for the first time but the agile Korean was quick to wrest back the lead after the Indian went long twice.
