Sivasangari handles comparison with Nicol positively ahead of worlds


Mental hurdle: S.Sivasangari feels she’s under additional pressure if she is compared to eight-time world champion Nicol David .

Since winning the London Classic last month, the 25-year-old has been cheered on by the country, and inevitably comparisons to Nicol are plenty as well.
