After a tightly fought first game, where Han gained a crucial advantage with a five-point streak and eventually won despite Sindhu’s late push, Sindhu turned the tables in the second game. She applied pressure from the outset, dominating to comfortably level the match.

With the score at 16-15 in Han’s favor, Sindhu powered through, winning the final six points in a row to secure victory.
