India more than made up for the disappointing mixed team’s final loss a week back, with fine additions in gold in the singles events, and men’s doubles. PV Sindhu finally added that one medal that was missing from an otherwise glittering collection, when she added the CWG women’s singles gold, downing Canada’s Michelle Li in straight games, in a 48-minute affair.
In fact, she had made it clear after the Indian mixed team’s loss in the final to Malaysia. “The women’s singles gold from CWG is missing, I need to get that… need to get that off my list,” she said, as if there was a bucket list she had jotted down and was ticking them off one by one.
Lakshya Sen continued to serve notice of his burgeoning promise with a hard-fought, digging deep-in-the-reserves win over Malaysia’s Ng Tze Yong in the men’s section. It was a sensational comeback by the Indian after he lost the first game narrowly 19-21. He then raised the level of his game in the next two, winning 21-9, 21-16 to clinch his maiden Commonwealth Games gold medal.
