PV Sindhu had a recent women’s singles second-round encounter at the French Open against Thailand’s Supanida Katethong. During this match, Sindhu initially took the lead by winning the first game with a score of 21-18, and the second game was evenly poised at 1-1 before she began experiencing discomfort in her left knee at the Glaz Arena.
The two-time Olympic medalist has also expressed her intention to prioritize her recovery and shift her focus towards the forthcoming 2024 Paris Olympics, where she aims to stage a comeback to peak performance.
