Wishing her victory in all her future endeavours, Naidu said that promotion of all sports and talented sportspersons is on his vision for development of sports in (new) Andhra Pradesh, a state government release said.
Nehwal lifted her first Super Series title in two years, clinching the USD 750,000 Star Australian Open after outplaying Spain's Carolina Marin in the summit clash in Sydney today.
