Gulf Today
|March 18, 2025
Olympic women’s badminton champion An Se-young came from behind to beat China's Wang Zhiyi 13-21, 21-18, 21-18 in a classic All England Open final on Sunday as top seed Shi Yuqi lifted the men’s crown.

World number two Wang won the first game convincingly and edged into a 13-10 lead during a captivating second game in Birmingham but the South Korean 2023 champion pegged her back.
Wang scented victory when the scores were tied at 18-18 in the second game but her South Korean opponent took the next three points to level the match.
The decider was also a tight affair but again An, 23, pulled away when the players were level at 18-18, winning her fourth tournament in a row and second at the All England.
