India’s P.V. Sindhu has qualified for the year-ender BWF World Tour Finals, Badminton World Federation confirmed on Wednesday.
This is the 31-year-old’s sixth career appearance in the World Tour Finals and her first since 2021. She had qualified for 2022 but withdrew due to an injury.
The World Tour Finals will take place in Hangzhou, China, from December 9-13.

Last week, Sindhu won the Hylo Open in Germany and will likely be in action next in the Syed Modi International starting November 24 in Lucknow.
Sindhu remains the only Indian to win the BWF World Tour Finals women’s singles title, having beaten Japan’s Nozomi Okuhara in the 2018 final.
