P V Sindhu on winning Japan Open title

After winning the championship, Sindhu told the Badminton World Federation, “I had tears in my eyes because it was important for me to win.” “I was really, really focusing hard and working hard on myself. I kept believing I can do it. A lot of people were like, ‘What’s happening? Is it done?’ Or whatever it is. Still, I believed in myself and my family and my coaches,” she added.
