  • PV Sindhu vs Nozomi Okuhara Final, BWF World Tour Finals 2018 Highlights: PV Sindhu Makes History, Claims Maiden BWF World Tour Finals Title

Olympic silver medallist PV Sindhu made history by becoming the first Indian to win the season-ending BWF World Tour Finals.

The Indian superstar beat a familiar foe in Nozomi Okuhara of Japan 21-19, 21-17 in the final to claim her first title of the year.

Sindhu had a tough time this year, unable to win even a single tournament this year but the Indian shuttler was in top form and ended the tournament unbeaten.

In both games, Sindhu made a fast start but Okuhara managed to stay within touching distance. Sindhu, though, had just too much in her locker and won points at crucial junctures to maintain her dominance in the match.

The 23-year-old had beaten Ratchanok 21-16, 25-23 in a captivating semi-final on Saturday.
