Carolina Marín stays at the gates of the final in Canada

MADRID, 2 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Spanish badminton player Carolina Marín has fallen this morning in the semifinals of the Canadian Open, Super100 category and which is played in the town of Calgary, against the Chinese Taipei player Sung Shuo Yun (9-21, 21-15, 21-19).

The woman from Huelva, current European champion and top seed in the tournament, started strongly, achieving a lead of eight points that allowed her to close the first quarter with solvency. However, the Taiwanese responded forcefully to balance the contest.

Equality was the dominant tone of the third and final set, which reached the final stretch tied at 18. It was then that Sung Shuo Yun dealt the final blow to the Spanish and guaranteed victory and passage to the final.

In this way, Marín, six-time continental champion, remains at the gates of her second final of a year in which she has reappeared after her serious knee injury, which left her unable to defend her Olympic title at the Tokyo Games.
