PV Sindhu lost to Carolina Marin in Singapore Open

Before heading into Indonesia Open, PV Sindhu participated in the Singapore Open 2024. However, the 28-year-old's campaign came to an end after losing to her rival Carolina Marin in the pre-quarterfinal.

Fresh from her runner-up finish at the Thailand Open last week, the premier Indian shuttler took the opening game against her Rio Olympics final nemesis, but the Spaniard bounced back to win 21-13 11-21 20-22 in a one-hour, eight-minute battle of the BWF World Tour Super 750 meet.

PV Sindhu blew away an 18-15 lead in the decider to go down to familiar foe Carolina Marin in a thrilling three-game.
