Chen Yufei defeated world number two An Se Young 21-16, 22-20 in the women’s singles to seal victory, prompting the packed stadium to erupt in cheers and the entire Chinese team to rush onto the court to dance in a circle.

Earlier on the day, Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong lost the opening game of the mixed doubles but pulled it back in a tense point-for-point second game to eventually triumph 18-21, 22-20, 21-8.

In the men’s singles, Lee Yun Gyu was easily outmatched by Shi Yuqi, unable to deal with Shi’s powerful smashes and laser focus.

In the Women’s Singles, the long rallies between Chen and An, who looked increasingly frustrated as the match wore on, drew gasps from the crowd.

The tournament is one of badminton’s most important, and the stakes are higher than usual this year because performances will count towards qualification for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
