Paris Olympics: saina nehwal said- We cannot judge a player by the results of the last six or seven months


Sindhu will try for her third consecutive Olympic medal in the French capital. Sindhu made a comeback to the game in february this year after recovering from a knee injury. Sindhu's game has lacked consistency after returning from injury. During this time, she has reached only the final of the malaysia Masters Super 500 and has had to struggle against top players.


London olympics bronze medalist saina nehwal supported two-time medalist pv sindhu and said that her recent performance should not be made a criterion for a medal in the paris Olympics and she will regain her rhythm in time. Saina said that the possibility of winning a medal in the olympics will largely depend on fitness and practice.

Sindhu will try for her third consecutive Olympic medal in the French capital. Sindhu made a comeback to the game in february this year after recovering from a knee injury. Sindhu's game has lacked consistency after returning from injury. During this time, she has reached only the final of malaysia Masters Super 500 and she has had to struggle against the top players.


Saina said, 'You cannot judge any player by the results of the last six or seven months. sindhu has been playing well for many years and has a lot of experience. It is just that what happens in that particular tournament will depend on the time when the event starts. She has not won many matches in the last seven months but these matches have been very close.'


She said, 'Many times victory or defeat does not show your rhythm but you can achieve it anytime. All the players at the top level work hard. I am sure sindhu will be trying hard to get the rhythm and medal.' The biggest problem for sindhu in the last few times has been that she is not able to convert the match into a win after taking hold of it.


Sindhu is currently finalizing her preparations for the olympics in Saarbrucken, Germany. Saina said that practice is the only solution to get rid of such worries (losing matches from good positions). She said, 'These flaws can be overcome only by practice. If you lack practice, any player can beat you, but if you have trained well, such things will be less. This is what matters.'


Saina said that the indian men's doubles of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty have a golden chance to win gold in Paris. Saina said that the indian men's doubles of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty have a golden chance to win gold in Paris. This 34-year-old player from hyderabad said, 'In men's doubles, we have a very strong chance to win gold.'


She said, 'Men's singles is very difficult because 10-11 players among them are at the same level. I am sure we will know the result only on that particular date because you never know how a player will play in that tournament.' HS Prannoy and Lakshya Sen will lead india in men's singles at the paris Olympics. Saina has not played any tournament since she was knocked out of the first round of the singapore Open in june last year due to a knee injury. Saina said that she is trying to make a comeback but it is not possible at the moment due to the knee injury.
