Saina Nehwal’s Odense campaign got even better today as she ousted Nozomi Okuhara from the DANISA Denmark Open 2018 – Presented by VICTOR, a day after beating Okuhara’s Japanese team-
mate, Akane Yamaguchi, in straight games.
On this occasion, the gritty Indian was forced to go the distance in Women’s Singles, having dropped the first game versus her opponent. The tenacious 28-year-old wrestled for the lead from 12-12 to trigger a decider which she then dominated to claim a confidence-boosting 17-21 21-16 21-12 quarter-final triumph.
