PV Sindhu rallied brilliantly to storm into the final of World Championship with a thrilling 21-16, 24-22 victory over Japanese Akane Yamaguchi in Nanjing, China, on Saturday.
In a repeat of Rio Olympics final, third-seeded Sindhu will meet Carolina Marin in the title contest on Sunday. Two-time World Carolina Marin defeated sixth-seed Chinese He Bingjiao 13-21, 21-16, 21-13 in a marathon match. Marin has been laid low by injuries after her 2016 Rio Olympics gold but played brilliantly to reach the final.
Sindhu, who had defeated Nozomi Okuhara on Friday, was trailing in both games but made stunning recovery to make it to her second successive final at the World Championship.
