And it’s an all-China finale!

China’s #2 seed Liu Shiwen pulled no punches as she took care of the World Cup’s wildcard challenger Lily Zhang in straight games (11-6, 11-1, 11-5, 11-5 ) and reached within touching distance of a record breaking 5th title!

In all of 27 minutes, the four-time winner never looked like giving a chance to Lily and it was an immaculate performance which left fans wanting for more. Thankfully we still have a chance to see more of each of these athletes with the 3rd-4th place play off and the finals to come!

So who joins Zhu in the final?

World Champion Liu Shiwen has taken a swift 3-0 (11-6, 11-1, 11-5) lead over USA’s national champion – and talk of the tournament – Lily Zhang. Is there a way back for Lily?

And the top seed reaches the final!

There was too much of a Chinese pressure at the table for Feng Tianwei to work with, and she ended up unable to push her opponent into a final seventh game (11-1, 11-13, 9-11, 11-5, 11-5, 11-5).

“Today I entered into the match rhythm very quickly. I led 7-2 in the second game, but Feng Tianwei is a very-very experienced player. She managed to come back and forced me to be a bit anxious in the third game. As I said Feng is very experienced, she is very clever on the court. Every point matters in the match against her. I need to give out 100% to win point by point.” Zhu Yuling

Zhu Yuling has made her third final at the Women’s World Cup and will look to make it a second title later today. For Feng, a third-fourth place pay-off awaits.

Zhu back in it?

The Chinese top seed has won two games back-to-back herself and now the tie reads 3-2 in her favor. Will Feng have enough left in the tank to make this a 7-game decider?

And Feng turns the tables!

Zhu took the first game with an 11-1 showing, but Feng has switched things into her control by winning the second and third games 13-11 and 11-9 respectively. Who’s looking more likely for the final?

Any early predictions?

China’s Zhu Yuling has started brightly against Singaporean veteran Feng Tianwei with 7-0 point lead in the first game. Is she on the path to the final?

Four remain, who will #LiftTheCup?

Who wants that gold?
