PV Sindhu has made a strong comeback from injury, reaching the semi-finals of the Malaysia Open, her first tournament since October. The two-time Olympic medallist emphasized a cautious return, focusing on full fitness after a toe injury and rehabilitation in the US, and is now gearing up for a packed season including the India Open, World Championships, and Asian Games.
Sindhu will start her India Open campaign against Vietnam’s Nguyen Thuy Linh, while fellow Indian stars like Lakshya Sen, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy, and Chirag Shetty look to capitalize on home advantage. With a demanding schedule ahead, Sindhu aims to balance fitness, form, and recovery as she eyes strong performances on home soil.
