Chochuwong sealed the opening game inside 25 minutes after unforced errors from both the shuttlers. Sindhu had a shaky start, while Chochuwong moved at lightning speed on the court to widen the gap between the two.
The world no. 7 shuttler had lost the semifinal in the 2018 edition as well.
"I think it was her day, everything she was hitting was on the line, I just couldn't do anything about it. Overall, I should've controlled my unforced errors, maybe things could've been different," Sindhu said.
"I knew it was going to be a good match, she's not an easy player. Her strokes are really good and she's going to be a really good player."
"Everybody aims to be in the final, it's over for now so I have to learn from my mistakes and take the positives. I don't have a tournament for another month so I have time to prepare and come back stronger," Sindhu, the Olympic silver medallist, said.
