Indian badminton star PV Sidhu added one more record to her name when she won the BWF World Tour Finals tournament by beating Nozomi Okuhara on Sunday.

Sindhu became the first Indian to win the title.

She claimed a 21-19, 21-17 win in the final.

This is the Indian shuttler's first title of the year.

The win is especially significant as Sindhu was unable to win a single tournament this year.

Sidhu has won several important titles in her career so far.

Her victories include winning the silver medal in the last Olympic games.
