In the final on Sunday, she takes on Indonesia’s Putri Kusuma Wardani, who was equally untroubled in her semifinal assignment against France’s Leonice Huet, 21-8 21-14. Wardani is in her first senior final.
Indonesia maintained their chances of a sweep of all five titles. They were assured of the men’s doubles, with Sabar Karyaman Gutama/Moh Reza Pahlevi Isfahani and Pramudya Kusumawardana/Yeremia Erich Yoche Yacob Rambitan progressing to the title bout.
