I am stronger than I was at Rio: Sindhu

Hopes to go one step further than 2016 after working on all facets of her game

World champion P.V. Sindhu, who is gearing up for the Tokyo Games, feels she is an improved version of the player who claimed India’s first badminton silver at the Olympics. “I am mentally and physically much stronger compared to the 2016 Rio Olympics where I won a silver,” she told The Hindu. “I have been working a lot on my physical fitness and the mental aspects, improving my skills and technique.” The 26-year-old also said she was more mature and experienced. “The first objective will be to cut down unforced errors, consistency is very important. You will be watching new weapons for sure,” she said.
