Park Tae Sang coached Sindhu to her second successive medal in Olympics, two years ago in Tokyo. But after some recent failures, Sindhu has decided to move on and find a new coach.
It was a gruelling one hour and 15 minute battle between Lakshya and Prannoy who eventually eked out a 17-21, 21-16, 21-17 over his teammate. It was the fourth meeting of the year for the two Indians after Prannoy's win, their head-to-head record standing at 2-2.
Incidentally, it was Prannoy's first win over Momota in eight matches. In their previous clashes, the Indian won only one game against his higher-rated Japanese rival.
The Indian men's doubles pair of MR Arjun and Dhruv Kapila moved to the pre-quarterfinals but Ashwini Ponnappa and N Sikki Reddy made a second round exit from the prestigious tournament.
Commonwealth Games 2022 Opening Ceremony: India are the world champion in men`s team competition having won their maiden Thomas Cup title a few months back and Sindhu is also in top form and won the Singapore Open earlier this month.
PV Sindhu received congratulatory tweets from everywhere for her stupendous achievement. Even Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted to congratulate the two-time Olympics medallist.
