Suyeon Seo reached the final without dropping a set in her three qualifying and semifinal matches.

After taking the first set in the final, Suh suffered a leg cramp at 9-7 in the second, but she scored two consecutive points to get over the hump.

She dropped the third set, but closed out the match in the fourth with a unique swing utilizing her long arms.

"I am prone to cramps, and I got them in the second set when the table was low and my legs bumped into it," Suh recalled. "That point was important, so I took a break from the tempo and thought about it until my legs calmed down, and I was able to finish the match well."

"I kept missing out on gold at the previous Para Asian Games, but I got it this time. I'm happy to be one step closer to my goal," he smiled.

Seo will also try to win the women's doubles and mixed doubles on the 26th.

"I have doubles left," said Seo. No Korean table tennis player has ever won three titles at the Para-Asian Games, and I'm determined to be the first." 카지노사이트
