Star storms to world title with sizzling act
Banlung Tubtimdang, who struck gold in Wuxi, China, has set his sights on SEA Games glory and LA 2028.
(WORLDTAEKWONDO.ORG)
Banlung Tubtimdang's scintillating gold-winning effort at the 2025 World Taekwondo Championships on Tuesday night has reignited Thailand's hopes for further success at the upcoming 2025 SEA Games and the 2028 Olympics.
Banlung delivered a career-defining performance in Wuxi, China, to capture the men's 68kg crown.
After settling for silver in the 63kg division at the 2023 championships in Baku, the 22-year-old Thai fighter showed his growth and resilience by overcoming South Korea's Seong Yu-Hyeon in the final.
He dominated the opening round 10-5 before sealing the title with a sharp counterattacking display in the second, which he won 7-1.
His path to the top of the podium was equally impressive.
