PV Sindhu reaches the next round of the French Open Super 750 badminton tournament after surviving a tough match against Thailand’s Supanida Katethong. Sindhu takes the early lead, winning the first game 21-14, but Katethong responds strongly in the second, taking control of the rallies and winning 21-8 to level the match.
The outlets frame the result around Sindhu overcoming pressure rather than a one-sided performance. NDTV highlights her status as India’s double Olympic medallist and notes Katethong’s world ranking (No. 26) as context for the challenge. The Hindu focuses more on the match momentum shift, emphasizing the contrasting scorelines across the two games. (ARTICLE 3 carries the same report and leads with the event and matchup.)
