Now, Sindhu would first play in the Arctic Open, followed by the Denmark Open — both in October. “I’m taking it week by week. Since we haven’t committed to anything long-term, it’s hard to plan for 2025. However, there are a couple of tournaments in 2025 that Sindhu should aim to peak at,” he said.

“You can plan for physical peaks, but not for form. I have my eye on a few tournaments next year, but the immediate focus is to enhance her consistency and get her back on the podium — that’s the big goal.” Meanwhile, it is important to note that Sindhu had last won a tournament in 2022 — the Singapore Open, and also the CWG 2022.

“She faced a tough couple of years with some good results but lacked consistency during that period,” Sridhar said. “If we can get her to a level where she’s consistently advancing past the early rounds, regardless of her draw or opponent, she’ll have a realistic chance of making a strong comeback.” Sridhar added.

“…yet her hunger remains. She works extremely hard and is a great role model for the rest of India’s badminton players.”
