Her heroes are Axelsen, Lin Dan and Tai Tzu Ying, but she takes only the qualities she likes.

15-year-old saved six match points in the 21-15, 13-21, 24-26 final loss to China's Junior World Champion Zang Yi Xin but off the court she faced hurdles

The junior World champ, a southpaw from China added the Youth Olympics title with a 15-21, 21-13, 26-24 win even as the Indian came back from 10-19 down in decider to get to 24-24 before bowing out
