In Tendulkar’s eyes, there is absolutely no drama or show off here. Saina Nehwal plays quality badminton and this show her true sportsmanship that she possesses.

Winning the first medal in badminton for India in Olympics will definitely promote the sport in the country. Hopefully, there will more medals for India in the coming future. Also, this would probably make badminton a much popular sport in the country apart from cricket.
