The final was much more dramatic with Turkey taking an 8-2 lead before Serbia pulled it back to 12-12.

In the final, Se-Young won the opening set 21-13 with an incredible ability to keep the shuttlecock in play. Bingjao saved two match points in the second set but it was not enough and Se-Young took gold.
