Rio Games silver medallist PV Sindhu stormed into the second round at the with a straight-game victory over Indonesia's Dinar Dyah Ayustine.

Saina Nehwal, who is yet to hit top gear since returning from her knee injury, suffered defeat at the hands of the seasoned Japanese player Sayaka Sato.
Saina has over the years held an advantage over the Japanese opponent, going into the match with a 6-1 head-to-head lead.
