Tai Tzu Ying gave herself a nice gift for her 28th birthday tomorrow with the EAST VENTURES Indonesia Open 2022 title, but true to character, gave all her fans plenty of heart-stopping moments before taking home the title.
Tai has talked all week of cutting down her errors, but she gift-wrapped the opening game for Asian champion Wang Zhi Yi with several wayward shots. The errors flowed liberally, and it was only the sheer genius of touch and imagination that kept her in the hunt.
Yet, that was only a curtain raiser to what was to follow, for once she got into the match, it was her show all the way. The shuttle did her bidding, both at the net where she coaxed it over the tape time and again, and through the implausible angles that she conjured.
