Host nation Chinese Taipei claimed two titles at the 2024 Taipei Open, winning both the Men’s Singles and Men’s Doubles at Taipei Arena.
In the Men’s Singles final, it was an all-Chinese Taipei affair as world No. 13 Lin Chun-Yi defeated compatriot Chi Yu-jen 21-7, 21-13, securing his second BWF World Tour title. Earlier this year, the 24-year-old also claimed victory at the Swiss Open, another Super 300 event.
The Men’s Doubles final was also an all-Chinese Taipei match, with Lee Jhe-huei and Yang Po-hsuan overcoming Chiang Chien-wei and Wu Hsuan-yi. World No. 10 pair Jhe-huei and Po-hsuan triumphed 21-7, 25-23, marking their second BWF World Tour win of the year, having previously captured the German Open title.
Chinese Taipei’s bid for a third title fell short in the Mixed Doubles, as Thailand’s Pakkapon Teeraratsakul and Phataimas Muenwong emerged victorious in a 40-minute contest, defeating Yang Po-hsuan and Hu Ling-fang 21-17, 21-19. Pakkapon and Phataimas had earlier won the US Open.
Meanwhile, Indonesia secured the Women’s Doubles title through Febriana Dwipuji Kusuma and Amallia Cahaya Pratiwi, who defeated Jesita Putri Miantoro and Febi Setianingrum 21-15, 21-16, adding to their Australian Open triumph.
In the Women’s Singles final, South Korea’s Sim Yu-jin emerged victorious, defeating Indonesia’s Putri Kusuma Wardani. Yu-jin, the eighth seed, took just 34 minutes to seal a 21-17, 21-13 win.
