Fit-again Saina looks to retain titles in Thailand, Indonesia

New Delhi, June 2: Ace Indian shuttler Saina Nehwal today said she expects nothing but defence of her titles in Thailand and Indonesia as she returns to action post a freak toe injury.
It will be a busy month for the young Hyderabadi as she will feature in an event in Singapore after playing in Thailand and Indonesia.
The world number 2 Indian was forced to skip the Sudirman Cup after aggravating a toe injury during the India Open in April. She had suffered a hairline fracture on the small toe of her left foot before the home event.
“It was an inadvertent happening in house when I was injured. It was quite painful that I was not able to participate in Sudirman cup. But past is past. Moving ahead, I have fully recovered from injury,” Saina said in an email interview.
The girl from Hyderabad had won the Thailand Grand Prix Gold and Indonesia Open last year and said she will look to repeat her performance in the back-to-back tournaments this month once again. (PTI)
