New Delhi: She may be out with injury but badminton ace Saina Nehwal has proved that when it comes to parrying blows on Twitter, her game is strong.

After PV Sindhu assured India at least a silver medal in the Rio Olympics 2016 women's badminton singles, a Twitter user nastily suggested that Saina "pack her bags". She chose to respond in the most dignified way possible.Shamed publicly, the man quickly offered an apology. Saina was prompt with an equally polite reply.
Ranked World No 5, Saina lost her second group league encounter 18-21, 19-21 to World No 61 Ukraine's Maria Ulitina to crash out of the competition.

While her shock exit blamed on a knee injury disappointed her fans and Saina alike, it's good to see her taking it all in the stride and displaying grace off the court too.
