Answer:
China's Chen Yufei Wins Women's Singles Badminton Gold
Explanation:
Tokyo Olympics: China's Chen Yufei won the women's badminton singles gold by defeating world number one Tai Tzu-Ying 21-18, 19-21, 21-18 on Sunday.
China's Chen Yufei claimed women's badminton singles gold on Sunday, denying Taiwan a second straight night of success in the sport. Taiwan had bagged its first-ever Olympic badminton medal the previous night with gold in the men's doubles competition. But Chen ensured there would be no repeat in the women's singles, beating world number one Tai Tzu-Ying 21-18, 19-21, 21-18 to capture the title. Tai scuffed a shot into the net to end a marathon final rally, and Chen fell to her knees and roared to the rafters.
