Double Olympic medallist and reigning world champion PV Sindhu is geared up for a good outing as she returns to competitive action after a break at the Denmark Open World Tour Super 1000 tournament, beginning here on Tuesday.

Sindhu, a bronze medallist at the Tokyo Olympics, had taken a break due to the hectic schedule during the Games, but she would be keen to make a winning return to the $850,000 event, which will also restart the BWF World Tour following a suspension owing to the pandemic.

Also in action will be London Olympics bronze medallist Saina Nehwal who has recovered from the groin injury which had forced her to retire midway through her first match at the Uber Cup Final last week.

While Sindhu, seeded fourth, hopes to have an easy opener against Turkey’s Neslihan Yigit, Saina will have to work hard to get past Japan’s Aya Ohori in the first round.

In men’s singles, young Lakshya Sen, who finished runner-up at the Dutch Open on Sunday, will look to continue his good run when he faces compatriot Sourabh Verma in his campaign opener.

Focus will also be on Chirag Shetty and Satwiksairaj Rankireddy.
