Three years after Badminton starlet Saina Nehwal parted ways with Pullela Gopichand, she finally returned to the Academy in Hyderabad. Saina took to twitter to announce the change and said that she had ended her association with former coach Vimal Kumar.

She left Gopichand academy to train under Vimal in Bangalore from September 2, 2014. Saina had secured world No.1 spot, won two World Championship medals and also reached the All England final under Vimal’s guidance.

Saina recently won the bronze medal at Glass Gow where she started conversing with Gopichand under whom the ace shuttler won Bronze medal in Olympics.

For a while I've been thinking about moving my training base back to the Gopichand academy and I had a discussion about this with Gopi sir
