The Hyderabadi will next take on sixth seed Chinese Wang Yihan,.
Sindhu produced a dominating game as she lead 4-2 early on and then kept extending the lead to eventually seal the opening game.
In the second game, Ying tried to put up a fight and opened up a slender 4-2 lead but the Indian clawed back in no time and broke off at 8-8 to move to 14-9 lead. Sindhu then marched on to shut the door on her higher-ranked opponent.
