Zitat des Tages von Saina Nehwal:
Badminton will gain momentum in a big manner after my win in Olympics. More players will participate in the game now.
I never believed that India could win a medal in badminton because the competition is so tough.
I don't think I have the ability or patience to teach badminton to others.
I am a huge Bollywood fan, and my favourite actor of all time is Shah Rukh Khan.
My dream is to see India as a nation of well-looked-after and respected sportspeople in all fields.
I really thank my parents for giving me the good sense to not get into anything wrong. There are many people around who like controversies, and I actually wonder how do they do it. I don't have the courage to get into controversies. There are people who love it; I find it silly.
Badminton is not as glamorous as cricket.
Both my parents were amateur badminton players. My father is a scientist and wanted me to be a doctor. But my mom was very aggressive and loved badminton. She pushed me right from the age of nine to take up the sport.
Badminton is not a popular sport in India.
I have turned down so many endorsements. My phone never stops ringing.
After I win a match, I celebrate it by having an ice cream.
Men are domineering in rural Haryana, and that shows in sport, too.
I do not fear anybody on the field or in society, but I fear at night when I am away from my parents. I am scared of the unknown described in horror movies.
My hero is Roger Federer.
