Saarbrücken, November 1: P.V. Sindhu won the Hylo Open women's singles title on Sunday, defeating Denmark's Line Højmark Kjaersfeldt 21-12, 21-14 in straight games in the final of the BWF Super 500 tournament in Saarbrücken, Germany, MyKhel reported.

Second seed Sindhu, the world No. 8, led 11-8 at the first interval of the opening game and stayed in control throughout against the eighth-seeded Dane, ranked 25th in the world. She sealed the title on her first match point when Kjaersfeldt committed a net error, Nation Press reported, collecting 9,200 ranking points from the USD 500,000 event. Sindhu had entered the final with a 6-1 head-to-head lead over Kjaersfeldt, whose only previous win over her came at the 2025 Sudirman Cup Finals.

The Dane stayed within reach until 12-14 in the first game before Sindhu pulled away by winning seven consecutive rallies, Flashscore reported. Kjaersfeldt, who has now lost all eight World Tour finals she has played, fought back from 3-7 down early in the second game but could not match Sindhu's precision as the Indian closed out the match.

A quick answer after Paris, and a second Indian final to come

The title is a swift response to last week, when Sindhu finished runner-up at the French Open in Paris. It also strengthens her prospects of qualifying for the season-ending BWF World Tour Finals in December. India still had a second title shot on Sunday in Saarbrücken: Lakshya Sen, who beat France's Toma Junior Popov 21-17, 21-13 in the semi-final reported by Awaaz Punjab on Saturday, was due to face Indonesia's Jonatan Christie in the men's singles final later in the day.
