On this day: PV Sindhu becomes first Indian shuttler to win World Championships gold

Firstpost  

After losing in the finals of 2017 and 2018, PV Sindhu on this day in 2019 became the first Indian shuttler to win World Championships gold medal. But in 2019, on this very day, Sindhu finally exorcised that ghost by becoming the first Indian to win World Championships gold. I just wanted to answer with my racket and with this win – that’s all,” was Sindh’s response after winning the World Championships gold medal. In an interview with India cricketers Smriti Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues on the talk show Double Trouble in April this year, Sindhu revealed that she was desperate to win the gold medal in 2019 at World Championships as people had started saying that she had a “final phobia”.
