Saina Nehwal retains Swiss Open
New Delhi: Saina Nehwal won her first title of the season when she retained the
Swiss Open Grand Prix Gold trophy with a straight-game victory over China's Shixian Wang in the summit clash at Basel, Switzerland.
The world number five Indian defeated Shixian, ranked third,
21-19 21-16 in a 48-minute thrilling women's singles competition to
defend her title.
Saina made a whirlwind start to the final, zooming to a healthy
11-3 lead in the first game. Shixian reeled off four straight points and
slowly made her way to level the score at 17-all but the Indian made
sure she had nose ahead in the end.
Saina Nehwal won her first title of the season with a straight-game victory over China's Shixian Wang.
In the second game, Saina had an early 3-0 lead allowed the Chinese
to claw her way back to 11-8 at the break. After the breather, the
Indian gathered herself and caught up with Shixian at 13-13 and then
registered four straight points from 15-all to eventually seal it
comfortably.
The girl from Hyderabad, who turned 22 on Saturday, Saina had beaten Japan's Minatsu Mitani in the semifinals last night.
The Indian ace had registered a 21-16 21-18 triumph over Mitani
in 35 minutes to set up a summit clash with second seed Shixian. The
Chinese beat eighth seed Inthanon Ratchanok of Thailand 21-17 21-15 in
another women's singles match.
In the semifinal match, Saina didn't allow the Japanese to come
close to her as she opened up a 3-0 lead and kept extending it to pocket
the first game.
In the second game, Mitani showed some aggression and led 7-3,
but Saina caught up with her and then moved ahead to seal the match.
Saina had reached the quarterfinal of the All England
Championship earlier this month. She reached the semifinals at the
Malaysia Open and the quarterfinal in the Korea Open in January this
year.
