Mumbai: Saina Nehwal, who has recovered from a knee injury sustained during the Rio Olympics in August and is back on the international circuit, is still not at her physical best and needs more time to reach that high level, feels her coach Vimal Kumar. “She is definitely not back to her best and has some way to go before she can aspire to win big tournaments again,” Vimal said.
“Another 4-6 weeks once she starts high intensity training. From January-end onwards she will be a strong contender,” he added.
