India's B Sai Praneeth defeated compatriot Kidambi Srikanth 21-17, 17-21, 21-12 in a tight contest to win Singapore Open Super Series on Sunday. However, Praneeth pulled himself up and kept his composure to take the second game 21-17 after trailing 1-6. Praneeth is now only the second player from India to win the men's singles final of a Super Series. This was the first time in the history of badminton where two Indians clashed in a Super Series final. Only three nations -- China, Indonesia and Denmark -- have so far had two of their shuttlers playing in finals of a Super Series event.
