Viva Mew Choo!
Malaysia’s woman No. 1, Wong Mew Choo shuttler finally shows the world the giant side of her after winning the China Open 2007 in Guangzhou. The 24 year old Mew Choo also won the tournament in superb style after disposing off 3 China top players - Zhu Lin, Zhang Ning and world’s number one, Xingfang. This is by far the greatest achievement by a woman national badminton player. It looked like Mew Choo was heading for a defeat when Xingfang was leading 8-3 in the rubber set but she showed great determination to make a come back and eventually winning the China Open title in style.
Mew Choo is also the only 2nd non-China player who wins the tournament. Another player who made it so was Bang Soo-hyun, who won in 1994.
Congrats to Wong Mew Choo. Hope she can be the Nicol David of Malaysia Badminton. I didn’t watch the final, but I was hooked on the TV during her semi with Zhang Ning. She deserved to win.
