World No 7 Sindhu took 58 minutes to defeat world No 11 Zhi Yi 21-9, 11-21, 21-15 and win her third title of the year.
The two-time Olympic medallist earlier won the Syed Modi International in January and Swiss Open in March, however, were BWF Super 300-level meets.
The 27-year old Sindhu’s next assignment will be at the Commonwealth Games 2022, which begins in Birmingham on July 28.
“Thanks to all the fans here who have been very supportive. It’s great to be in Singapore and winning the final. I think this is an important title for me personally and can help me take my game to another level,” said Sindhu, a former world champion and seeded third in the tournament, after the win.
“I’ll take it easy for a while and turn my focus to the Commonwealth Games,” she added.
