Sindhu got leads in all three sets but could not maintain them. Her opponent was mostly returning and not taking chances but moving well in the court. Sindhu could have used her deadly smashes to unsettle the opponent.A missed chance to get the Gold but well done
It is really sad she narrowly missed gold. As a Badminton player personally Ifeel Sindhu was not delivering smashes which she could have with her height advantages making the game slower for the opponent to recover. I believe she needs to change her format as per need of the hour.Congratulations Sindhu for the Siver and hoping for Gold next.
Whay India is losing in Final now a days...First cricket champions trophy...woman world cup...and this one...Poor indians poor fitness level...Eat rice rasam and go to play finals :-)
referee handed Sindhu a yellow card when she was late to the court, but did not haul up Okuhara when she was not ready when Sindhu served - that one point would have given gold to Sindhu !! May be I am missing something .
By seeing final match, now we can say Indian can produce world class athletes. You may loose the match, but you have hugely successful in further lifting up the badminton craze in India. Like your father said Okuhara played just above her standards. You could have won the match if you have hold your nerve in crucial times.It will better if you smile and have animated face while playing, which is clearly visible in your opponent face. Having cool mind set while playing will do wonders for you, its better your approach MS Dhoni, how to tackle tough situations will calm mind. After a long time Indians witnessed a good match. Better luck next time

OF LATE BADMINTON HAS FLOURISHED IN INDIA DUE TO SINGLE HANDED EFFORTS BY SAINA ANS PUSARLA AND ABLE TO FLY HIGH OUR TRICOLOR UNLIKE CRICKET WHICH IS NOT RECOGNISED INTENTIONALLY BUT GIVEN MORE IMPORTANCE IN INDIA BECAUSE OF MONEY INVOLVED IN IT. oNE BADMINTON GOLD OR SILVER MUCH MORE RECOGNISED THAN THOUSANDS OF CRICKET GOLDS. WE LOVE SINDHU, SAINA, GOPICHAND, PRAKASH, VISHWANATHAN ETE. MUCH MORE THAN SO CALLED CRICKET HEROES.

Not only PV Sindhu & Saina but there are lot of good players in tennis. You missed out Mahesh Bhupathi, Leander Paes, Sania Mirza - Tennis is also growing. Boxing Vijayendra, India is always good in hockey & Cricket... Even Gymnastic one of player came 4th.. Just missed the medal.. in olympics.. What else we require.
I really though you played really well,, but one suggestion for you, don't lose your energy in shouting, which you did a lot, please keep it within, it will help you in winning this kind of crucial matches because storing energy is important, believe me.
