P V Sindhu's demolition of Japan's Nozomi Okuhara in the World Championship final was "perfect execution" of a strategy which included putting a halt to the Indian ace's tendency to be repetitive, says the country's foreign badminton coach Kim Ji Hyun.

Kim, a former South Korea international and coach, sat by the courtside as Sindhu thrashed 2017 champion Okuhara 21-7 21-7 in one of the most lop-sided finals in the history of the tournament to lift her maiden World Championships title in a third straight attempt.

"Perfect execution! I was so happy (with) how she played!" Kim, who joined the Indian coaching set-up in March this year, was quoted as saying by Badminton World Federation (BWF).

"I mean, yeah! That's the way I play when I play against her. I feel over the moon because we did it!"
