World No. 2 wins women’s singles on eve of 28th birthday, cheered by full-house stadium

INDONESIA IS 'SPECIAL' FOR TAI OPEN TITLE

Tai Tzu-ying will wake up today with a smile on her birthday, and will probably meet people who will address her as Dr Tai.

But, above all that, she will be most happy with her Indonesia Open triumph yesterday.

The Chinese Taipei star clinched her fourth Badminton World Federation (BWF) World Tour Super 1000 title at the Istora Senayan arena in Jakarta by beating Asian champion Wang Zhiyi of China 21-23, 21-6, 21-15.

The world No. 2 had spoken last week of cutting down errors in her matches, and, like her semi-final win over China’s world No. 4 Chen Yufei in which she dropped the first game, she again survived a scare before she defeated the unseeded Wang.

“Yesterday I had a tough match so I thought I’ve already made a difficult journey, so I had to make the best of my opportunity,” Tai, who turns 28 today, said on the BWF World Tour website.

Can Singapore have a dedicated writers' room to peek into the lives of literary legends?

Midway up 14 flights of stairs to an independent bookstore in Hong Kong - the lift at the vertical arts enclave in Foo Tak Building had broken down again - I happened upon The Xi Xi Space, a cramped unit on the seventh floor dedicated to a writer I've encountered only through a few poems but knew little about.
