After a below par performance at the World Championships, where she faltered against a Chinese player in the quarterfinals, world number 5 Saina Nehwal has an opportunity to redeem herself in the backyard of those dominating shuttlers.
The ongoing China Masters will see five Chinese shuttlers in the quarterfinals and Saina will face her first test against the World number 1-Yihan Wang-on Friday. According to Madhumita Bisht, the coach accompanying the team, the stage will be the best place to prove she possesses the mettle to beat the Chinese in her quest for Olympic success. “The top four in the world are in the quarterfinals. If Saina can go on to at least reach the finals, she will gain the confidence she needs for her preparation for the Olympics,” said Bisht.
