[AP/YONHAP] </em></span> <span class="mask"></span> </div> </div> <br> Korean badminton star An Se-young claimed her fifth title of the season on Sunday after beating China’s Wang Zhiyi in a dramatic comeback in the women's singles final at the Kapal Api Indonesia Open 2025 in Jakarta, Indonesia. <br> <br> An rallied from one game down for a 2-1 victory, losing the first game 21-13 and bouncing back to claim the second 21-19 and third 21-15. <br><br>She last won the Indonesia Open title in 2021 and lost the final to China's Chen Yufei last year. <br> <br> An's road to this year's final saw her cruise past some strong competitors. She beat Busanan Ongbamrungphan of Thailand 2-0 in the round of 32, then took down compatriot Kim Ga-eun, Pornpawee Chochuwong of Thailand, Akane Yamaguchi of Japan and Wang in order. <br> <br> A victory over Wang also marks An's third time beating the Chinese contender in the final this year after doing so at the Malaysia Open and All England Open Badminton Championships. <br> <br> She clinched a title at the 2025 Orléans Masters after a win over another long-time rival Chen in March, but she lost to Chen in the quarterfinal last month at the Singapore Open. <br> <br> An shook hands with Wang and the umpire before acknowledging the crowd, basking in applause and cheers. <br> <br> “Many people helped me grow,” An said in a postmatch interview. “The key was that I believed in myself.” <br> <br> An has already captured every major title at 23, including two medals — one gold and one bronze — at the World Championships and one gold medal apiece at the Hangzhou Asian Games in 2023 and Paris Olympics last year. <br> <br> She is not only the first Korean badminton player to win a gold in the women’s singles at the Asiad in 29 years, but also the first Korean to secure gold in the discipline at the Olympics since Bang Soo-hyun did so in 1996. <br><br><i>Translated from the JoongAng Ilbo using generative AI and edited by Korea JoongAng Daily staff.</i> 관련자료 이전 '네이버 망할 것 같다' 했지만 결국…창업 이후 첫 '깜짝 베팅' 06-08 다음 '짜릿한 역전승' 안세영, 왕즈이 꺾고 인도네시아오픈 우승 06-08 댓글 0 등록된 댓글이 없습니다. 로그인한 회원만 댓글 등록이 가능합니다.
