While Saina managed to clinch the gold with two straight set wins, there was no shortage of praises for Sindhu, who ensured on the court that the match remained an edge-of-the-seat experience for the viewers.

Both Saina and Sindhu displayed a superb form. While Saina won 21-18, 23-21 to bag gold, Sindhu clinched the silver medal. And Twitter erupted in joy soon after, with twitterati lauding the might of the “golden girl of India” Saina as well as the fighting spirit of Sindhu.
