Now to the junior girls doubles final in which China's Wang Xinyu and Liang Enshuo of Chinese Taipei were facing the seventh seeded pair, Violet Apisah from Papua New Guinea and Lulu Sun of Switzerland. Liang became the first player from Chinese Taipei to win the girls singles crown one day ago, and was hoping to add another title alongside Wang.
The Cross-Strait duo on the right of your screen would start slow and trail 4-1 in the first set.
But they claw back and force the opener into a tie break. The girls exchange shots on the baseline before the Cross-Strait combination take it 7-6 when their opponents go long.
But Wang and Liang have no answer in the following set, which they lose 6-4 so a super tiebreak is needed.
The Cross-Strait pair would take control of the breaker, and Wang and Liang are able to go on to win it 10-5 to secure the junior girls doubles title.
