PV Sindhu believes she was unfairly penalised against Akane Yamaguchi. The Indian shuttler was leading by a set and had a 14-11 advantage in the second. However, she was forced to give up her serve for taking too long to serve and was given a one-point penalty. This proved to be the turning point in the game as the Japanese came back to win and advance to the finals. Sindhu had to settle for a bronze.
