Champions are not born overnight, they are made. Saina Nehwal, daughter of Usha and Harvir Singh Nehwal, a Haryanvi couple from Hyderabad, created history in 2015 when she became the first Indian woman and only the second Indian after Prakash Padukone to attain the world no.1 ranking in badminton. She is just 31 and if you are a sports enthusiast, you are pretty much aware of her achievements, fallout with coach Pullela Gopichand and why she owes it all to her parents and modest middle-class upbringing. But there’s always more to the story than meets the eye.
