PV Sindhu ends long title wait, becomes first Indian to win Japan Open

PV Sindhu scripted history on Sunday in Tokyo,becoming the first Indian to win the prestigious Japan Open title.The 31-year-old is also the first Indian to win the Japan Open, combining pure attacking display with discipline and composure as she went on to seal the title with a 21-17, 21-17 victory. Sindhu's last title came at the Syed Modi International in 2024. It's also her biggest victory since her World C'ships crown in 2019. Sindhu needed just 50 minutes to seal a commanding victory in the women's singles final. 

Yamaguchi was playing her sixth Japan Open final, while Sindhu had not beaten the Japanese player in a completed match for four years. Their meeting at the Malaysia Open earlier this year ended after Yamaguchi retired following the opening game. Sindhu's last full-match win over her came at the Thailand Open in 2022. On Sunday, Sindhu stayed in control for most of the contest. Her net play played a key role as she repeatedly forced Yamaguchi to lift the shuttle before finishing points with cross-court and body smashes.
Some late mistakes allowed Yamaguchi to close to 19-17, but the home favourite then hit wide to hand Sindhu three championship points. Sindhu sealed the title when Yamaguchi's final return landed long. The line call was confirmed after a video review.
