Defending champion PV Sindhu has progressed to Round 3 of the ongoing 2021 BWF World Championships as she defeated Slovak's Martina Repiska in straight games (21-7, 21-9) in her Round 2 match on Tuesday. Sindhu was at her best in the entire game as she never allowed her opponent to get any advantage at the Palacio de Los Deportes Carolina Marín in Huelva. The year 2021 has been the memorable one for Sindhu as just a week earlier she ended second in the BWF World Tour Finals and she also won her second Olympic medal earlier in August. In this mega tournament as well there's a lot of expectations from India's ace shuttler especially in the absence of Spanish superstar Carolina Marin who is out due to an injury.
