The women’s singles final became the most exciting match of the day. Lindaweni Fanetri(NS7000) of Indonesia faced Chinese Taipei’s Tai Tzu Ying, who won the title of YONEX OPEN JAPAN 2012 last month. After Tzu Ying won the first game by 21-19, the second game became the nail-biting game. Lindaweni took 2 consecutive points from 20-all to be into the decider. Lindaweni led almost all the game, however, from 20-17 in the final game, Tzu Ying won 5 consecutive points to win the title.
