Women’s dream final at the Yonex Swiss Open
The Yonex Swiss Open 2024 in the St. Jakobshalle is set for great things. With a crowd worthy of a finals Sunday. The fact that there are two finals featuring players from the same country (Taiwan against Taiwan in the men's singles and Malaysia against Malaysia in the final mixed final) – no problem! Because the women's singles will be the best possible final: Carolina Marin, the tournament's No. 1, will be challenged by Gregoria Mariska Tunjung (on the photo), the No. 2 seed. Marin versus Tunjung is also Europe versus Asia, Spain versus Indonesia, world no. 5 versus world no. 8. The two have met three times so far, with Tunjung winning twice, both times last year. Carolina Marin's only victory came six years ago. Will the Olympic champion and multiple world champion find a recipe this time? Badminton fans are eager to find out.
