What an emotional tournament it has been so far!

Despite suffering from food poisoning, which forced Goh Soon Huat into a vomiting fit, he simply refused to retreat and soldiered on until the very last minute. His unwavering determination paid off in the end when they won against Thailand with scores of 18-21, 21-7, 20-22.
But that's not the only heartwarming thing that happened during the match.
