PV Sindhu defeated China's He Bingjiao 21-13, 21-15 to clinch the bronze medal in badminton women's singles at the ongoing Tokyo Olympics.

The 26-year-old Sindhu seemed to have come back determined after yesterday's loss against World No 1 Tai Tzu Ying, and absolutely crushed the Chinese. It was a proper David vs Goliath contest, only that David never won Musashino Forest Sports Plaza in Tokyo today.

And as expected the Indian netizens exploded on social media platforms on coming to know that the country would return from the Olympics with a better medal tally than it had in Rio de Janeiro five years back.

Here are some of the best reactions:

Well, I won't deny this claim

Wishes poured in from the President of India

From one champion to another

Sakshi Malik knows what it takes!

A letter from the Legend

The former Sports Minister is a proud man!

Virender Sehwag in his usual elements
