PV Sindhu, India’s badminton star, sent social media into a frenzy on November 2. She shared a message, on Twitter and Instagram that started with "I RETIRE" written in big and bold letters. "Denmark Open was the final straw. I RETIRE," the first in her series of messages read. Sindhu goes on to talk about how she wants to come clean with her feelings. She tells fans that they may be confused while reading the message but will "have learnt about my point of view". Sindhu writes about the coronavirus pandemic and how it has impacted her.
