PV Sindhu’s bid to better, or match, her Rio 2016 silver
was halted by eventual silver medallist Tai Tzu Ying
of Chinese Taipei in the semifinals. But that did not
stop India’s badminton serial winner from adding a
historic second Olympic medal to her burgeoning trophy
cabinet. Shunning the disappointment of the defeat
from 24 hours earlier, Sindhu secufed the bronze medal
with a 21-13, 21-15 win againstHE Bing Jiao of the
People’s Republic of China. It gave her the distinction
of becoming the only Indian female athlete to win
multiple Olympic medals, and only the second Indian
female or male – to medal twice in individual events at
the Olympic Games. Sindhu also became only the fifth
female shuttler to win two Olympic singles medals. The
26-year-old has now won a combined seven medals at
the Olympics and the world championships since 2013.
