    The second-seed looked dominant throughout the match as she clinched a easy 21-12, 21-19 win over her Japanese opponent Yamaguchi in a one-sided quarter-final contest that lasted just 37 minutes. It was Sindhu’s fourth triumph over Yamaguchi in their last six meetings.

    With the win, the Indian shuttler has now set up a clash against sixth-seed Ratchanok Intanon of Thailand for a place in the finals.

    Sindhu, who is the lone Indian survivor in the Hong Kong Open, earlier cemented her spot in the last-eight of the Open.
