At the BWF World Championships 2025 in Paris, PV Sindhu faced Indonesia’s Putri Kusuma Wardani in a high-stakes quarterfinal. Trailing early at 3–6, Sindhu showcased her trademark resilience, leveling the score and shifting momentum. A win would make her the first woman to win six medals at the prestigious event. Despite recent struggles and injuries, Sindhu credited her turnaround to focused training with coach Irwansyah. The head-to-head stood at 2–2, with Wardani winning their last encounter. Known for her deceptive net play and long rallies, Wardani posed a tactical challenge. Meanwhile, India’s mixed doubles hopes ended as Tanisha Crasto and Dhruv Kapila exited in straight sets.(PC: The Indian Express & India Today)
