PV Sindhu was left speechless after her agonising wait for the elusive gold finally ended with a maiden World Championship title on Sunday. Basel: Two-time silver medallist PV Sindhu was left speechless after her agonising wait for the elusive gold finally ended with a maiden World Championship title on Sunday. Sindhu became the first Indian to win World Championships gold by thrashing familiar rival Nozomi Okuhara of Japan 21-7 21-7 in one of the most lop-sided finals ever. So I got it finally and I want to enjoy it, feel it.” It was Sindhu’s fifth World Championships medal – most by a female singles player alongside former Olympic and world champion Zhang Ning of China – to go with the two successive silvers and a couple of bronze medals.
