After a tough workout at the Siri Fort Complex on Monday morning, Saina reflected on her defeat to Chen. "I lost to Chen (Xiao Jia) in ABC but that was because I was not ready for her and some line calls also went against me. I have been defeating top players consistently but I realized Chen was a good player." (PTI)

"I've been playing well since last six months and except for 3-4 Chinese girls, I have defeated the rest regularly. They are scared to play against me. However, to beat those top players in London Olympics, I need to train more. I've got enough time and Gopi sir (coach Pullela Gopichand) has something planned regarding the training," she added.
