New Delhi, June 20: Rio Games silver medallist PV Sindhu will be under a lot more pressure at the Tokyo Olympics and it will be tough to repeat her medal-winning performance given the lack of match practice in the run-up to the showpiece event, reckons former doubles player Jwala Gutta. All the focus was on London Olympics bronze medallist Saina Nehwal in the run-up to the Rio Games but it was Sindhu who stunned the world with her silver medal winning feat five years back. “I hope that she gets a medal. There is definitely going to be more pressure than last time on Sindhu,” Jwala said. “In Rio, the circumstance were completely different for Sindhu, now the situation has completely changed.” (PTI)
