Newly crowned world champion Zhao Tingting got a prefect ending to her 20-odd years career. She paired up with Olympic bronze medalist He Hanbin to win mixed doubles title.
Zhao and He, who represent People's Liberation Army, lost the first set 21-14 to Hunan's Zheng Bo and Tian Qing, but reversed the situation to win the second at 21-8. The decider proved to be a seesaw battle as the two sides even levelled at 19-19 before Zhao and He notched up the game at 21-19.
"This is my third and last National Games. After that, I will retire." said Zhao, who will take up college studies shortly after a break.
"After I took the women's doubles gold in this year's world championships, I do not put myself under pressure anymore. Maybe relaxation did some help during my trip this time at the National Games," added she. "Anyway, it's a perfect ending for me."
Guangdong veteran Liu Jian took women's singles bronze medal after beating Li Wen from Hubei 21-10, 20-22 and 21-13. And she did a better job in team event as she helped Guangdong win a silver medal earlier on Tuesday.
In men's doubles, Olympic silver medalist Fu Haifeng paired up with Zhu Lihua to advance into the men's doubles finals. The other final berth went to Cai Yun and Xu Chen of Jiangsu.
As for women's doubles, the Beijing Olympic champions Du Jing and Yu Yang will meet Zhao Yunlei and Wang Xiain from Hubei in the finals.
