Speaking on the eve of the fixture in a press conference, Indian badminton legend Saina Nehwal claimed she has a hunger to win more medals after a seven-year drought post the historic gold in 2019. “It’s almost seven years since I won a medal at the World Championships, and I hope to get a medal here. I am really excited to have a world championship in front of a home crowd. The Japan win has given me a lot of confidence. I am hoping for good crowd support and will take one match at a time,” said Sindhu.
