Saina Nehwal lost to Tai Tzu Ying of Taiwan in the final of the Denmark Open in a three-game contest which ended in 52 minutes. The Indian was unable to beat the young Taiwan player who in recent past has dominated the women’s singles badminton and is also ranked number one in the world.

Indian star shuttler Saina Nehwal pu forward yet another remarkable effort as she defeated Nozomi Okuhara and became the only Indian woman in the semi-final at Denmark Open. Srikanth sailed into the men’s single semis after he stopped compatriot Sameer Verma’s charge in the quarterfinals. 

Saina Nehwal will start her campaign against Hong Kong’s Cheung Ngan Yi while unseeded Kidambi Srikanth would kick-off against Denmark's Hans-Kristian Solberg Vittinghis. India's biggest hope PV Sindhu would take on American-Chinese Beiwen Zhang as Sameer Verma starts against Shi Yuqi.

Sourabh Verma battled an ankle injury to win his second title of the year in Dutch Open as he defeated Malaysia's JuneWei Cheam in straight sets. The World No 67, who had also won the Russia Open earlier this year, had a pretty one-sided match in the finale winning the match 21-19, 21-13.
