Ace Indian shuttler PV Sindhu took the internet by storm when she mentioned "retirement" in a post on her Twitter timeline. In a lengthy three paged post, Sindhu mentioned how the Denmark Open was the last straw and she has finally decided to retire. To those who didn't turn the page and read the full statement, the player does not intend to retire from her badminton career but from the negativity and unrest that has been brought about because of the pandemic.
