Sindhu made history by becoming the first Indian to win the Korea Open, continuing the dominance that Indian shuttler’s have shown recently in both men and women categories.

The Rio Olympic silver medallist Sindhu won in an hour and 24 minutes at the SK Handball Stadium. It was her third Superseries title of her career and she is just 22-years old.

Okuhara had conquered the Hyderabadi in the World Championships final in August in Glasgow, which would have weighed on the Indian star as she took the court in Seoul.

After the August 27 win, the Rio Olympic bronze medallist Okuhara, 22, had taken a 4-3 lead in career meetings against Sindhu, which now has been restored to an equal number at 4-4.

World no. 4 Sindhu had clinched the 2016 China Super Series Premier and India Open Super Series and Syed Modi Grand Prix Gold this season and has added Korea Open Super Series to that list
