Sindhu edged local favourite Sun Yu in her own den 21-11, 17-21, 21-11 for her maiden Super Series title. Sindhu repeated Nehwal and K. Srikanth’s feat of 2014 when they lifted the women’s and men’s singles titles respectively.
She was also only the third non-Chinese player to win the women's singles event in 30 years.
