China’s players again asserted their dominance in badminton as they overcame arch-rivals South Korea 3-1 to win their 14th BWF Sudirman Cup title in Xiamen on Sunday.
It was the fourth straight win for the Chinese and their second in a row over the Koreans, whom they also beat in the final two years ago in Suzhou.
Mixed doubles pair Huang Dongping and Feng Yanzhe outlasted Korean duo Chae Yu-jung and Seo Seung-jae 21-16, 17-21, 21-15 in an intense battle at Fenghuang Gymnasium.
Women’s singles world No 1 An Se-young gave the Koreans hope by dispatching Wang Zhiyi, ranked one place below, 21-17, 21-16, only for the in-form Shi Yuqi to restore the lead for the Chinese.

World No 1 Shi needed only 33 minutes to destroy world No 42 Jeon Hyeok-jin in the men’s singles, registering a comfortable 21-5, 21-5 win.
Women’s doubles pair Liu Shengshu and Tan Ning clinched China’s ninth title in the past 10 editions, cruising past Baek Ha-na and Lee So-hee 21-14, 21-17.
It was the fifth time China had beaten South Korea in the Sudirman Cup final, after also coming out on top in Glasgow in 2007, Guangzhou in 2009 and Kuala Lumpur in 2013.
