PV Sindhu, HS Prannoy Enter Pre-Quarterfinals At Asian Games
Star Indian shuttlers HS Prannoy and PV Sindhu progressed to the men's and women's singles pre-quarterfinals with straight-game wins over their respective opponents in the badminton competition at the Asian Games in Hangzhou on Tuesday. World no. 7 Prannoy, who had missed the men's team championships final against China due to a back injury, was back on the court, dishing out a clinical performance to expectedly outwit Mongolia's Batdavaa Munkhbat 21-9 21-12 in 25 minutes. He will face either Jordan's Bahaedeen Ahmad Alshannik or Kazakhstan's Dmitriy Panarin. (Asian Games Medals Tally | Asian Games Full Schedule)
