An opens up a lead
4-straight points for the South Korean and she now enjoys a 4-2 lead. Pressure building on Sindhu.
Equalised!
The joy does not last long for Sindhu as An Se Young equalises at 2-2. Close start!
Wonderful start from Sindhu
Some aggression from PV Sindhu and she goes 2-0 up in the second game.
An Se Young takes the opening game!
The South Korean had Sindu by her necks, but the Indian did show a stomach for fightback. 4 Game points saved before Young closed it off 21-16 in 18 minutes.
As mentioned Sindhu has never managed to take even a game off An Se Young and there cannot be a better time than now for her to do the impossible!
Brilliant from Sindhu!
An Se Young had 8 game points and Sindhu has saved 3 with some wonderfully placed shots. Too little too late?
Sindhu trying to fightback
A slew of points for PV Sindhu and she is trying to stage a comeback. Still a 7-point lead for An Se Young at 19-12.
Not looking good
This is just going from bad to worse for Sindhu. An Se Young slipped on court, and the Indian still failed to convert that. 18-10 lead for the South Korean.
13-7
Just some exchange of points post the break and An Se Young is well in control.
TRIVIA

So, Sindhu is clearly an underdog here.
