P V Sindhu topples Saina Nehwal in world badminton rankings for first time

Riding on her maiden Super Series Premier title at the China Open, Olympic silver medallist PV Sindhu entered the top 10 but Saina Nehwal crashed out of the elite bracket in the latest BWF world ranking.

P V Sindhu, who clinched the China Open last week, jumped two places to grab the ninth spot, while former World No. 1 Saina, who is on a comeback trail after recovering from a serious injury, slipped five places to 11th spot, owing to her first round exit at China Open.

In the Destinational Dubai ranking for the BWF Super Series Final, Sindhu (38,490) is ahead of Saina (38,080) by a few points and their performance at the ongoing Hong Kong Open will determine who qualifies for the prestigious tournament next month
