Sindhu's match is the 2nd one in the evening session. That's much better than her recovery time between R3 and QF matches....

Marin is such an annoying player with all her screaming and shrieking. Straight from Sharapova's book.

But she is playing well too. Won the first game 21-17 against Sindhu.

It is all over. Sindhu lost 17-21, 15-21. It seemed like Marin had more energy than Sindhu who looked tired.
So, yet another bronze for Sindhu.

[SF] (11) P V Sindhu (IND,12) l. (9) Carolina Marin (ESP,10) 17-21 15-21

Well, what can we say! Sindhu couldn't make a come back for the third day in a row........

And Carolina Marin beat Chinese world no. 1 Li Xurei in 3 games to become the first Spaniard to lift the world title and probably the first European to do so in many many years in womens singles. Great to see Chinese domination in womens singles slowly diminishing.

First since Camilla Martin back in 99.

LCW lost in the men's final again for a 3rd successive time.
