Badminton News: All eyes on PV Sindhu and Saina Nehwal

The latest edition of BWF World Championships begins tomorrow in Basel, Switzerland. While this event, the biggest one in the badminton calendar of this year, is bound to be special, in 2019, it holds even greater value due to various possibilities emerging from it. To begin with, winner of last year's BWF World Championships Carolina Marin is not playing as she is still recovering from her injury. This opens up a great opportunity for PV Sindhu. Twice, the latter has been denied a major title by the Spaniard. First it was the Olympic final in Rio, then the World Championship final last year. On the other hand, Saina Nehwal started the year on a good note but has lost her form of late. But after a nice break and also with her husband by her side as a coach, she may have a better opportunity. But both players will have a lot to deal with. Tai Tzu Ying, considered the best player in the world but struggling a bit in 2019, would also look to end her trophy drought in this event.
